Sometimes the most important skills we can develop don't involve anything below the neck:
- Confidence
- Willingness to prepare
- Positive thinking
- Relaxation
- Concentration
The coaches' expectation is that players will gradually assume more of the 'thinking' of the game, not just executing, but calling and eventually even planning how we play. Ultimately players will play best when executing that in which they have confidence of success.
For our theme of 'better possessions', we would emphasize not just minimizing turnovers, but maximizing (offensive) success by effective movement without the ball, good ball movement, excellent decision-making (re: shot selection for example) and aggressive rebounding to start new possessions.
