Coaches,

Having a practice plan is one of the most important things to remember when coaching youth sports.  You have to evaluate what skills your kids need and then plan drills to work on these skills for each practice.  It's best to plan MORE drills than you even have time for, so there's no wasted time.  I subscribe to a great newsletter by Coach Mac.  His website is http://www.basketballforcoaches.com/. It's a great site!  He sends emails about once a week with articles and tips for coaching youth basketball.  I downloaded his free eBook called 31 Youth Basketball Drills.  It is great and is specifically for young players.  I used several of these drills at camp this summer.  If you go to his website you can download it too, for free!  

We also have short videos posted to our website each week that have tips and drills for coaches.  They are posted on the Welcome page if you scroll down towards the bottom.

Coaches are responsible for scheduling a practice facility for your team.  These facilities like to deal directly with the coaches.  Some places to call are area churches, schools where your players attend, schools or gyms where a parent on your team works.  Some coaches share gyms with other teams too.  If you are having trouble securing a practice facility please contact us and we'll help.

Thanks for coaching!
