Follow-up on Spring Season

The coaches like to see the girls playing other sports, because we think the overall training makes better athletes.

We expect to have the courts reserved from 3 to 7 PM, because we also expect to have time for some of the older players to come in later. Obviously, these workouts are totally voluntary, and the players' priority will necessarily be: FAMILY, SCHOOL, and BASKETBALL.

Although it's fine if the girls haven't touched a basketball since the season ended, if they have we hope that they spend some of their time shooting free throws.

My favorite shooting drills (which we've previously handed out) are:

  1. Elbow to elbow
  2. Bill Bradley (one point for a make, minus three for a miss, game to 11)
  3. Around the world (make shots from all ten spots, going out and coming in, in the fewest shots possible...that would be twenty). It can be done!
See the clip below about Bill Bradley, who later became a Rhodes Scholar and U.S. Senator.
