2v2 Transition Drill from Bob Krizancic & :07 Scoring System! Attack the bucket and get to one foot to take advantage of 2 on 1 situations. Don't allow the 2nd defender back in the play. Finish quick, finish strong! #Basketball #2on1

[Jeff Huber @HuberBasketball]

As Coach Jim Huber shares, good footwork and balance are key in basketball. A solid athletic stance will boost your strength and speed. Work on pivoting and drop steps to create space and avoid traveling. Low players win! #BasketballTips #Footwork

3v2 Passing From Jim Huber - be strong with the ball, ripping it through to throw on-target, on-time passes. Shift the defense, be deceptive! Start with monkey in the middle, then add active defenders to make passing decisions more challenging. Game-like drill!

[Jeff Huber @HuberBasketball]

Pop finishing from Matt Lewis eliminates the dribble, focusing on the catch, stride stop, and finishes. Practice inside hand, outside hand, and the Rondo move (right shoulder jumper) for versatile shots. Great way to learn the stride stop. #BasketballDrills #FinishingMoves

[Jeff Huber @HuberBasketball]

Argentina Passing Drill from Nick LoGalbo: More than just passing. Players call names, high-five for chemistry, and sprint to meet every pass in triple threat with good footwork. Great conditioner, too! #BasketballIQ #TeamChemistry

1v1 Speed Dribble w/Jim Huber - Speed dribbling in basketball is about pushing the ball ahead of you, not just dribbling where you are. Switch hands to prevent defenders from tipping the ball. Create separation with cutoff dribbles and your off-hand then finish under control.

[Jeff Huber @HuberBasketball]

1v1 Rebound Rim Run from Cam Schuknect! Players fight for rebounding position, outlet to the wing, touch half court, and then read the defense for scoring opportunities. Footwork is key - no nonsense! #BasketballDrills #HoopsTips

[Jeff Huber @HuberBasketball]

1 Hand passing warmup from Nate Steege.. Very few players can pass with both ahnds. Fundamental breakdown position work. Practice your pocket pass ball handling, envisioning you're holding that defender off. Snap the pocket pass to your partner on the other side.

Sleep is very important. Have a set bed time. Put devices away 60-90 min prior

Professional sports teams are focused a lot on the sleep aspect, right? Lebron sleeps 10-12 hours a day! Replinish #sleep #recovery

2. Athletic Development

As kids get older, developing core strength becomes important. Start with bodyweight. When using weights, prioritize technique to avoid injuries. Speed, agility, and quickness are also key for explosiveness!

Parents often ask what their kids need to work on. These are the skills.

2 Ball Attack Series from Don Kelbick. Two-ball dribbling and layups are a great drill to improve ball-handling skills and coordination. Work on your weak hand while maintaining control of the other ball. #BasketballDrills #BallHandling

1v1 Tight cones drill from Jim Huber: Stay in the alley, use pullbacks, attack N/S. Defense stays close, offense attacks! #BasketballDrills #Hoops

The "Chill Drill" from Kevin Furtado: Elevate your game with this killer dribbling drill! Watch how she combines inside-out moves, spins, retreats, and hesitation finishes for ultimate court control. Freedom + fundamentals = 🔥. #BasketballDrills #DribblingSkills
