Coaches promote mastering each previous action before progressing through the sequence, assuring player confidence as they build shooting proficiency. We help players understand how to be shooters before they even receive the ball. We build a mindset of offensive and shooting confidence, flowing from their knowledge of movement within the offense before and after they get the ball in their hands.
We help the shooter understand the following to help them get their shot off as quickly as possible without sacrificing form (off the pass):
- Proper footwork for proper balance to explode straight up into the shot vertically
- Arm position when catching the ball: how to "go to the pass"
- Hand and finger position when catching the ball
- Arm, hand, and finger motion after catching the ball
- Body motion after catching the ball for quickest, most balanced release
Players will progress through their skill and confidence-building through instruction and live shooting drills during this clinic.
