Practice Schedule
Our opening practice for the sixth graders is tomorrow, and I'm posting the opening hour practice schedule. We're going to move fast. Refinement comes with time and repetition. There is no "muscle memory." The ability to function more quickly and reliably comes from brain MYELIN deposition.
The colors have meaning to me from a preparation standpoint. We will always have clear goals, a transparent philosophy, and detail-oriented approach. Drills come from elite college and NBA programs for the most part, although I have developed some as well.
I'd like players to be there a little early (5 minutes) for the initial distribution of practice shirts and notebooks.
Our theme for the first day is GET VOLUME REPETITIONS. The best way to grow your TEAM is to grow your individual players.
Program themes are: 1) Development, 2) Sacrifice, 3) Accountability
Primary teaching concept: Basketball is a game of cutting and passing, not standing and dribbling.
Thought for the day, "If you don't have time to do it right now, when will you have time?"
Reminder: "The game is about making plays, not running plays." - Mike Krzyzewski
Pete Maravich was one of my basketball idols growing up.
