Beginner training plan
Your first lessonWork on hand/ball positioning (fixing the had position when shooting), introduce Fire Drill (works on positioning ourselves better with defense and learning on how to take charges), defense/offensive clinic (works on ways to stop the ball on defense and what plays will work through offense to score).
Lesson 11+Dribble passes (working with the right-hand first with keeping control of the ball and only passing with the right-hand and switch over to the left), shuffle passes (starting on the baseline and pass back and forth while shuffling their feet w/o crossing them over to the half court), position shooting (starting in the baseline, the ball will be thrown at a certain spot with letting the ball bounce twice to get their feet set and shot ready), elbow shooting (making 5 shots each on the R/L elbow and finishing the last shot with a right/left-handed layup)
Lesson 4-10Start on Mike-in Ike’s (a drill that involves being able to finish with the left and right hand for layups), free-throw rhythm (creating a better routine and rhythm for their shot at the FT line), dribble pounds (working on keeping control of the ball with their ball handling; i.e. start with the right-hand dribbles, stationary crossovers with R/L hand, behind the back, and start over with the left-hand dribbles)
Lesson 2-3Work on ball handling with movement (pound the ball with right/left hand, crossovers from left to right, etc), Stop and shoot (work on dribbling into your shot; mid-range/3-pointers), and finishing drill (driving into the lane and finishing with contact or through traffic)
