SHOOTING CLINICS ARE GROUPS THAT WILL BE COACHED BY BRITTON AND COACHES WITH PLAYING EXPERIENCE OR COACHING EXPERIENCE AT HIGH LEVELS. COACHES WILL HELP THE PLAYERS TO CREATE GOALS TO HELP THEM INCREASE THEIR SHOOTING SKILLS.
SHOOTING CLINICS CONSIST OF TECHNICAL FORM SHOOTING, AND CONDITIONING SHOOTING.
TECHNICAL SHOOTING- THIS IS SPOT SHOOTING, WHERE I LIKE TO WATCH THE KID'S FORM AND HOW THEY ARE RELEASING THE BALL.
CONDITIONING SHOOTING- THESE ARE SHOTS MIXED WITH RUNNING, AND SPRINTING DRILLS. THESE ARE “GAME” SHOTS THAT PLAYERS HAVE TO PRACTICE TO BE ABLE TO HIT THEM IN REAL GAMES. THEY WILL BE PUT ON A TIMER, OR HAVE A CERTAIN NUMBER AS A GOAL FOR THEM TO REACH.
SKILLS CLINICS CONSIST OF BASKETBALL DRILLS, COMPETITIONS, AND GAMES THAT WILL PUT THE PLAYERS IN GAME TIME SITUATIONS.
PLAYERS WILL BE GIVEN SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS ON SHOOTING, PASSING, REBOUNDING, AND DEFENSE.
I BELIEVE THE BEST WAY TO LEARN IN A GROUP SETTING IS TO MAKE DRILLS COMPETITIVE. DOING THIS IN THE RIGHT WAY MAKES THE LEARNING FUN FOR THE PLAYERS. HAVING A GOAL IN MIND FOR THE GROUP ON A CERTAIN NUMBER OR A TIMED SCORE HELPS THEM PUSH EACH OTHER AND THEM SELVES IN THE COMPETITIVE DRILLS THAT WILL BE TAUGHT AT THE SKILLS CLINICS!
