About Youth Basketball Drills...
Spectacular plays may make the highlight reels, but winning results from
consistent execution of sound fundamentals. Youth Basketball Drills
contains all the drills you need to develop the essential skills in your
players. Authors Burrall and Patrick Paye have outlined drills and variations
that cover the entire scope of the game in both offense and defense. The
drills are grouped by skills, with variations that progress as your players
learn. Explanations show you how, when, and why to use each drill.
You’ll find the information to build stronger individual players and
develop a winning team. The arrangement of this book makes it a perfect reference
tool—all of the details are presented in a step-by-step format. The
drills are categorized into three skill development levels: beginner,
intermediate, and advanced. Each drill is clearly marked by number and by
name, with an estimate of how much time it takes to execute. A list of all
related drills is given to help you implement a systematic order to your
workouts.
There are drills for all facets of basketball, including: balance and agility,
footwork, ballhandling, passing, cutting, screening, rebounding, and
shooting.
Defensive skills are also addressed—both for the individual and as a
team—including stance and footwork, individual moves, and team
defense.
It’s important to start young players out right—executing each
move and each technique exactly as they are meant to be done. Having youngsters
learn and then practice the proper techniques is vital. Youth Basketball
Drills will give you the know-how and practice tools to teach young players
the correct techniques, fundamental movements, and proper footwork to excel
in basketball.
