Rogers Basketball Tryout Introduction and Expectations Rogers Basketball Tryout Introduction and Expectations Below you will find an outline of what is expected of a RMS athlete in terms of attitude before, during, and after tryouts and throughout the season. We will also outline skills that will be scored throughout tryouts and continued into practices for team growth and development. Athletes will be scored on a scale by coaches and each athlete will have an overall score on the core skills. Each day all skills will be demonstrated, so even if an athlete has a bad day, there are plenty of chances to show your skill. Give 100% EVERY DAY in all attempts and that is the best you can ask of yourself. What you can expect coaches to be looking for during the tryout process: 1. Athletes need to have a respectful attitude towards their teammates and coaches at all times. “Coachability” is the process of being able to take direction and constructive criticism (i.e. – keep your head up while dribbling to see the floor and teammates) and attempt to try what has been directed. Attitude is the ability to maintain a positive outlook through adversity and effort is the ability to work hard every day through every drill and should also be something each athlete strives for. Respect will be earned and returned between all. 2. Communication between and with teammates on the court is one of the most important parts of the game. 3. Movement- All drills and activities will involve quick defensive or offensive movements. Dynamic warm-ups and drills will be an integral part of the tryout process and implemented in ALL practices every day. 4. Court Awareness is the ability to understand where the court begins and ends. Athletes will understand player responsibilities and positions 5. Shooting-ability to make shots from different spots on the floor, with proper form. a. Set shot- Free throws b. Jump shot- Short corner, elbow, free throw line c. Lay-ups- Rated on a scale as well as number made d. Mikan drill-“block jump shots” rated on a scale and number made 6. Ball handling- ability to go at game speed with both hands and head up a. Speed dribble- dribbling with designated hand as fast as you can i. Right handed ii. Left handed b. Crossover dribble- dribble through as many cones as possible while doing the crossover dribble at the cone. 7. Passing-ability to pass to a moving target. Will be rated on a scale a. Partner shuffle passing. Two partners will pass while moving down the court. i. chest pass ii. Bounce pass iii. overhead/baseball pass 8. Defensive ability- ability to move their feet and hands to guard another player. Ability to open hips to turn and go another direction. a. defensive slides cone to cone b. 1 v 1- can they play defense in a 1 on 1 situation 9.

Like many rookie and veteran coaches, you probably have had little formal instruction on how to coach. But when the call went out for coaches to assist with the local youth basketball program, you answered because you like children and enjoy basketball, and perhaps because you wanted to be involved in a worthwhile community activity. Your initial coaching assignment may be difficult. Like many volunteers, you may not know everything there is to know about basketball or about how to work with children. Coaching Youth Basketball will help you learn the basics of coaching basketball effectively. To start, let's take a look at what's involved in being a coach.

  • 2Nd Grade Practice Game Concepts and Drills
    2nd Grade Practice Game Concepts and Drills You should be cycling through these various game concepts and drills at every practice. Through repetition and consistency, the kids will learn how to play the game of basketball, properly shoot the ball, shoot a lay-up, pass, and dribble. At this age, they don’t need much variety. Keep things simple and repetitive, so they can build good habits. Refer to the Basketball Skills Progression Document to see the correct form on dribbling, passing, shooting, lay-ups, footwork, and game concepts. Pick one drill from each of the following categories for each practice: • Game Concepts/Scrimmaging • Passing • Dribbling • Lay-ups If there’s time, there are other drills that you can do, listed at the bottom. Dribbling, lay-ups, passing, and some kind of scrimmage or game play should be all done at every practice. Game Concepts Yes, this seems very basic, but we are laying the groundwork for these kids becoming good basketball players. There is no sense in teaching them about any fundamentals if they don’t understand how the game works at a basic level. You may need to take a few minutes at each practice to remind the kids about basketball game concepts. • OFFENSIVE CONCEPTS o At this level on offense, we really want the kids to learn: ! Quick passes ! Go directly to the lane with your dribble. ! Don’t force a shot if it isn’t there. ! Try to work the ball around and get a shot in and around the lane. ! Minimize the fast breaks and focus on running a disciplined offense.

  • Officiating and Ball Handling Lesson Plan
    Officiating and Ball Handling Lesson Objectives: The purpose of this lesson plan is to be able to understand the rules and regulations of basketball, hand signals and terms of officiating and a wide variety of different ball handling skills. Time: 45 minutes Equipment needed: Basketballs and basketball hoops, computer, overhead projector Classroom: Start off with video on rules and regulations. Then go over the signals for traveling, carrying or palming, double dribble, jump ball, goaltending, over and back, and time restrictions (10 seconds to cross half-court, 5 seconds to get rid of ball when you pick up your dribble or defenders within arm’s length of you, 3 seconds in key area). Then go into different fouls that can be committed. These would include personal fouls which are considered as any physical contact such as hitting, pushing, slapping, holding, and an illegal pick and screen. Other fouls can be committed when a person is shooting, if they don’t make the shot, they get 2 free-throw shots, if they make the shot, then they get one free-throw shot, but if its in the 3 point range, then they get three if they miss. The team is allowed 7 fouls per half, after that the other team goes into to bonus, which is one- and-one, once they get passed 10 fouls, they are in double bonus and they get 2 free-throws for any foul committed. Some violations are charging, which is an offensive foul when the offense runs into the defensive player while their feet are set.

  • TIME for PLAN B Revised for Scottsdale Youth Sports (By Paul A
    TIME FOR PLAN B Revised for Scottsdale Youth Sports (By Paul A. Bernardo) How do you keep a team from running up the score in a youth sports game? Is a score of 42-6 in a youth flag football game or 54-16 in a youth basketball game really necessary? The main goals of any youth sports program should be fun and participation. Do scores like this sound like much fun to you? In the Scottsdale Youth Sports program, we’ve developed an attitude and philosophy with our staff known as “Plan B.” This concept helps to minimize games, which are embarrassing “blowouts.” Plan B is a preventative strategy that a team will use during a game in which they have a substantial lead. It is a practiced technique, which becomes part of their game plan. What is Plan B ? Actually, it is very simple. Those of us who have been involved in youth sports at one time or another, have been involved in a “blowout.” When we have encountered this situation, we tend to ad-lib and do our best to keep the score down. Unfortunately, there are still coaches around who do nothing about it. They use these inflated scores to boost their egos and gain notoriety for “what a great team” they have. Greatness achieved this way has no place in youth sports. Plan B takes all the ad-libs and puts them in a package at the beginning of each season. For all sports, Plan B stresses the following: 1. It gives more playing time to the kids who do not get much under normal circumstances.
