Knights Basketball LLABB
The Knight’s LLABB Basketball Skill Training and Player Development Program aims to improve all aspects of every player’s game.
This will be for grades 5th-8th
A heavy focus on shooting, passing, ball handling and footwork, but will expand to include the larger, conceptual ideas of player spacing, player movement and ball movement that are critical to successful offensive basketball.
These are skills that players will need to compete at the middle and high school levels. The defensive skills of on ball stance/posture, basic off ball positioning and closing out on the ball/shooter will be expanded upon here and we will start to introduce the concepts of “help & recover”, defensive rotations, boxing out & rebounding and transition defense.
Specific skills and actions covered will include:
- Shooting form
- Shooting balance
- Engaging hips to produce power in your shot
- Shooting footwork and coordination
- Developing quickness
- Developing explosiveness
- Changing speeds
- Changing directions
- Finishing at the rim
Workouts/sessions will include:
- Live ball moves
- Ball screen reads vs ball screen coverages
- Shooting off screens
- Operating in the mid-range
- Playing out of triple threat
- Driving off the catch
- Getting game shots from game spots
- Game passing matrix
- Ball handling matrix
