Beginner training plan
Your first trainingThe first thing is to establish fundamentals. This includes all of the different types of layups, dribbling drills, and shot technique.
Training 2-3This is where practice makes perfect. Build on our fundamentals with repetition, introduce new drills to start to add on additional skills, and address any core weaknesses at this point. You can expect jump shooting drills, dribbling drills, adding scoring moves to our layups, and defensive fundamentals.
Training 4-10This is where we add layers to our game. Advanced dribbling techniques, shot making and shot creativity drills, defensive deep dives, and finishing moves.
Training 11+Foundations should be solid at this point, but a lot of becoming better at basketball is repetition. Each session would have a focus area in key domains; shooting, ball handling, passing, defense, and basketball IQ.

What you need to bringWater, basketball shoes, and extra basketballs (optional)

What I can bringBasketball, cones, training aids

About your basketball coach

Iโ€™ve been playing basketball for over 15 years, played briefly after college in a semi pro league and was raised by a high school basketball coach. I played collegiate football at Cornell, and have competed against and seen all levels of basketball (except professionally). I enjoy sharing my knowledge of sports, particularly basketball and football, to the younger generation. Iโ€™m able to cater to both beginners and experienced players alike. I look forward to contributing to you or your loved ones skill development.
