Beginner training plan
Your first lessonFootwork, ball handling and agility are the foundation of becoming a beginner in basketball.
Lesson 11+As they progress, we go into putting everything together so the students can become a complete basketball player. Having confidence is key to playing the game of basketball. The best way to build confidence is through reps- reps remove doubt.
Lesson 4-10Now we start to learn how to move while finishing at the basket, along with catch-and-shoot, and shooting off the dribble.
Lesson 2-3We then advance to form shooting and layup drills. One of my favorite drills to practice is the Mikan drill, which helps individuals work on their left and right hand finishing at the basket.

Advanced training plan
Your first lessonThis will depend on the position of the advanced player- we will evaluate this first to see which areas they need to work on. We will begin with advanced ball handling drills. For “bigs” we will work on footwork and the touch around the basket. For “guards” we would work on finishing technique around the basket (implement the Mikan with variations).
Lesson 11+By 11 sessions, the player should be very comfortable. Now it’s about pace, playing through fatigue, staying sharp and keeping your principals together while you’re tired. It’s about putting everything together and playing a basketball game. By now you should be trying to learn the tricks and trades of basketball like getting yourself open, understanding game speed, and repetition. Repetition builds confidence and gets rid of doubt.
Lesson 4-10As they progress, for guards, they need to be able to handle the ball going right and left, shoot floaters and have a nice touch to shoot over bigs. We will make sure to work on the mid-range game and 3-point shooting. Most importantly, pace changing will be implemented and crucial. A lot of repetition and practicing at game speed will be at the core of these lessons. For bigs, they will need to learn how to properly pick and roll, pick and pop, and be comfortable shooting 15-footers. Teaching angles and screen setting will be key. Free throws for all will also play a role. Many of these lessons depend on the skill level of the player, but these are basic lessons we will build from. You play the way you practice so game speed is critical.
Lesson 2-3Reps will be important- attacking the rim, shooting drills, taking one-dribble and two-dribble pull-ups going left and right. For bigs, I would want to make sure they can make a simple jump hook off their left and right shoulder.

Youth players
Working with kidsI adapt my lessons by having patience- this is key when working with the youth. It’s also important to teach everything from the basics. You have to keep things fun as well, because they have a smaller attention span. This will make it easy for them to learn if they’re having fun.

Working with teenagersTeens are a little different. It’s more about building their confidence. How do you do that? Repetition builds confidence and removes doubt. Teaching the fundamentals of the game is one of the most important factors when it comes to teens.
