coach our here and with a mirror today
we're gonna be doing basketball drills
for beginners these are youth drills
that you must do when you're starting
off your young basketball player let's
go alright so the first thing that you
always gonna do you want to warm your
young guy your young basketball player
young guy or girl up with some laps so I
always make a miracle dribble the
basketball while running laps
I make them usually running two laps
with his right hand and then two laps
with his left hand
make sure he's keeping a steady pace not
double dribbling and getting better with
this Bart Houston why he's working on
his stem
[Music]
all right so the next drill that we like
to do we always like the warm-up that
jump shot and gets prepared for our
workout so we do spot shooting we have
to make ten shots from our three main
spots we take one shot one spot is on
the right side one spot is in the middle
and one spot is on the left side the
goal is to hit the shots in a row if he
doesn't hit him in a row or he misses
like two or three in a row I usually
make them start all over
[Music]
the third thing that we like to do is
like to work on our layups the last
couple months I've been working on
mirror doing his layups off two steps
and jumping off the correct foot so if
your kid has kind of master running up
to taking that close shot move it to the
next level get their footwork right and
make sure they're doing their layups
correctly they should be jumping off sir
left foot if they're on the right side
jumping off to the right place they're
on the left side and only taking two
steps make sure your young basketball
player is not traveling I know a lot of
these rec leagues they don't care about
traveling but if you're like me and
you're trying to help your kid get
better you care about traveling and you
want them to play the game correctly so
teach the drill correctly as possible
they do travel some time it's okay let
it go but try to stick to it as much you
can to make sure they do not travel take
10 later from the left side
right side I added a cone to add a
little crossover in just to keep it
interesting
[Music]
now this is where the the game like
drills start coming into play we're
about to do a hard dribble and then pull
up jump shot over the defense's head now
this drill helps a lot in their age
group because a lot of times these
little teams play these zones and the
kids can't dribble through everybody so
they gotta be able to shoot over a mark
so what we're gonna do is gonna pick
three spots
Aamir's gonna dribble for so they stop
one a time and pull up the jump shot try
to push them back their jump shot as far
as they can get it so and they keep
increasing their range as they get this
we're gonna do the right side make sure
you make ten shots in the middle to make
sense shots and on the left side make
ten shots out for my favorite drill and
I believe the most important especially
at this age kids always get these
fast-break layup and they tend to miss
them
90% of the time so what I do in the
mirror as I make sure every practice are
getting at least 10 fast-break laps that
he has to make what I like for him to do
is when he's on the fast break I like
him to get on his strong side so I make
him go to the right side of the hoop and
try to make that left as best he can
those are easy points that kids give
away all the time but if you work on it
when they're in the game it'll be
automatic they'll know to get to their
strong side shoot that ball right off
the backboard so that's what we're doing
full court fast-break layup
now this drill the last video we do is
to me the most important drill because a
lot of times kids do these drills
phenomenal but when they get in the game
a struggle a lot and that's because
they're not used to playing the game
like situation so this drill right here
is gonna be the most game-like
that you can get it so what I'm gonna
basically be doing the mirror is playing
him a one-on-one with some shadow
defense not playing them too tough but
playing them good enough so that he
feels like he's in the game get in front
of him make him do some moves making
change directions make him use his pump
fake arm if you double dribbles I like
to do is block his shot real hard make
him understand you can't double dribble
or if he violating any rules like the
travels or he just does something that
is out of the way then my defense
tightens up
extremely hard so just play some shadow
defense on your own young guy your young
player so young girl not too tough but
if they're making mistakes that you have
been working on like traveling or
jumping up the wrong foot
make sure the consequences you block
their shot real hard or you steal the
ball from all right all right coach our
here with a mirror we just showed you
some basketball drills for beginners all
of these drills are must do drills you
have to do these drills these are the
fundamentals these are just going to
help them get ready for a real game now
you can't add other drills and use your
imagination but these drills right here
