Beginner training plan
Your first lesson1️⃣ Start with a Friendly Introduction
• Greet them warmly by name.
• Ask about their basketball experience (if any) and what they hope to improve.
• Let them know my coaching style: “We’ll have fun, work hard, and focus on getting a little better each time.”
Start with a warm-up, then work on ball handling, some footwork, a bit of shooting, and finish with a fun challenge.
