Basketball Tips 1: Shooting

These are drills we will use to get ready for practice.  If you have time, a ball and a rim, I suggest you work on these drills as often as you can.  They are a great way to release stress and take a break from busy school schedules.

Proper Shooting Form

The Mikan Drill (footwork on a lay-up, not bringing the ball down)

Basketball Tips 2: Dribbling

These are drills we will use to get ready for practice.  If you have time, a ball and a flat surface, I suggest you work on these drills as often as you can.  They are a great way to release stress and take a break from busy school schedules.
