Fall & Winter Basketball Training 2026/2027
PARENTS… THE OFF-SEASON IS WHERE PLAYERS SEPARATE THEMSELVES!
The season will be here before you know it. Don’t wait until tryouts to start preparing.
This summer, I watched these athletes grow, improve their fundamentals, gain confidence, and become more coachable—and NOW it’s time to take that development to the next level!
FALL/WINTER TRAINING STARTS SEPTEMBER 1ST!
For 4th–8th grade, September will be focused on TRAVEL TEAM TRYOUT PREP:
- Ball handling
- Shooting & proper form
- Passing
- Aggressive defense
- 4-out/1-in & 5-out offense
- Basketball IQ & fundamentals
For HIGH SCHOOL and 4th–8th Grade Athletes/September–March Planning on Playing AAU in April:
- Strength & conditioning
- Advanced skills & fundamentals
- Corrective stretching & mobility
- Preparing for the season & AAU
HERE’S WHY CONSISTENCY MATTERS…
Imagine your athlete getting 200–300 quality shots in a day—using proper form and technique.
With training 2x per week, that’s:
- 400–600 shots/week
- 1,600–2,400 shots/month
- 11,200–16,800 shots over 7 months!
AND THIS YEAR…
I HAVE 4 SHOOTING MACHINES that will be used heavily throughout the fall/winter!
This isn’t about simply getting shots up. It’s about QUALITY repetitions, proper mechanics, confidence, and building habits that carry over into games.
The goal isn’t just to make your athlete better in practice.
The goal is to make them MORE CONFIDENT when the lights come on.
STARTING SEPTEMBER 1ST
Mon–Thurs: 4–5 PM or 5–6 PM
Saturday: 8–9, 9–10, 10–11, 11–12
