Squad Training
Training as squads can help to focus on building strong foundations of fundamentals. Learning and mastering the fundamentals is essential in giving players a deeper understanding of the game as they build confidence and muscle memory. Mastering the basics enables players to increase their coordination while promoting consistency. A couple of great examples of how fundamentals work:
Before Allen Iverson perfected the devastating "Killer crossover", he first had to learn how to execute a regular crossover.
Before Steve Nash starting dishing out mesmerising behind-the-back passes, he first had to learn how to throw a basic chest pass.
Before Steph Curry began knocking down 30-footers from the logo, he first had to learn the basics of shooting technique.
Squad training in the early years is also highly beneficial in creating friendships and connectedness. In future seasons, players will play with a variety of new players and when they have already experienced training in squads they will already have built strong connections.
Individual team trainings
Once players have mastered the fundamentals, they move to team trainings where they will have the opportunities to put their skills to practice with offensive and defensive strategies. We make every effort to keep teams of the same age group and division training on the same courts so that coaches have the opportunity to scrimmage with other teams in the same age group and collaborate with other coaches.
