Dear Coach,

It's one of basketball's worst kept secrets...

That no matter what offense, defense or sets two teams run...

The team with the best, most skilled players almost always wins.

Don't get us wrong, your team offense and defense principles matter A LOT.

But even the most perfect motion offense won't win games if players aren't knocking down shots.

A lightning-quick fast break won't get buckets if players can't finish at the basket.

In fact, your entire offense depends on versatile players who can take advantage of the opportunities the defense presents.

This is true at EVERY level of the game.

But as you'll see in a moment, the lack of proper skill development has become something of an epidemic...

Which also makes it an opportunity for you to:

• Load your team with versatile scoring threats
• Create a "talent gap" between you and your opponents
• Make a long-term impact on your players' basketball future

But we can't just wait for players to learn the necessary skills by themselves....

They're Counting On YOU
To Show Them

As a coach at any level, you're in the "Player Development" business.

To truly do right by your players, you need to teach them the foundational skills that will set them up to succeed - now and in the future.

Players don't understand how to do this on their own.

They need coaching.

A few years ago, we were asked to contribute to a virtual "roundtable" of over 50 basketball experts.

The topic?

The most common mistakes
when running a youth practice...

The participating coaches and experts were high-level experts who represented all ages, skill levels and philosophies.

So many great insights were shared, but one in particular stood out...

Because 69.2% (36 out of 52) of coaches independently identified THE SAME PROBLEM with youth practices:

Lack of fundamental skill development.

Every coach wants to win now.

But in the race to the top of the standings, player development often gets overlooked in favor of practicing plays, sets and defenses.

The irony, as previously mentioned, is that...

Skilled Players Win More Games...

Coaches unintentionally shoot themselves in the foot by rushing through skill development.

You can run your offense to perfection, swing the ball and get the open shot, but if your players can't knock them down consistently what's it matter?

But now imagine you have players who can:

• Push the ball in transition (without turnovers)
• Finish with both hands through defenders
• Create separation off the dribble
• Knock down perimeter shots consistently
• Protect the ball under pressure
• Stop on a dime and drill mid-range shots

All of a sudden, everything you're running on offense works better.

Players are making plays and scoring efficiently...

Your offensive is truly maximized!

More Than Wins...
Your Coaching Responsibility

Another common theme in the Expert Roundtable was that coaches at younger levels often overemphasized winning at the expense of players' long-term success.

This is a belief reflected by some of the top basketball minds in the world (who have first-hand experience at lower levels)....

Here's what a few of them had to say:

"(European players) are taught the game the right way at an early age. They're more skillful. It's something we really have to fix...(kids) don't know the fundamentals of the game. It's a big problem for us because we're not teaching players how to play all-around basketball."

"The fundamentals are not where they used to be...I don't know if it's the little leagues or AAU ball. I don't think the game is being taught the right way. I'm not saying every coach (but) there's a shortage somewhere. And it's hard because these little league coaches and these AAU coaches get a player, and he's so good, and they want to win so bad.... But they stop teaching all the guys."

And they aren't saying this from afar.

Each of the three guys above have children who play youth to high school basketball. Not to mention the camps they run each year.

They're in the fray and they see a serious problem.

Of course, everyone wants to win. The game's a lot more fun that way.

But it's important to strike a balance between winning now and setting players up to succeed later.

This Goes Beyond Youth Teams...

Believe it or not, many high school and college players were never properly taught the basics, either.

They learned on their own, piecing together advice from past coaches, parents and practice.

Many formed bad habits that hold them and their team back to this day.

Even NBA players have this problem.

11-time NBA Champion Coach Phil Jackson says...

"Today’s players simply lack the skills to play the triangle... They don’t know how to execute things like inside-reverse pivots and other basic footwork. They have no sense of timing or organization. They don’t really know how to play five-on-five basketball. It’s strictly generational..."

Some high school and college coaches skip skill development or spend little time on it, assuming players should have already learned the fundamentals...

But they don't realize how much untapped potential they could access just by re-establishing fundamentals.

Turning Players Into
3-Dimensional Offensive Weapons

From an offensive scoring perspective, we're talking about developing a solid skill base all over the floor...

1. Knocking down perimeter shots


2. Attacking the basket and finishing with both hands


3. Drilling mid-range shots

Players who establish these 3 elements of the game are...

• Highly efficient with the ball
• Very difficult to guard (even against stiff defense)
• Space creators who open up opportunities for everyone else
• Able to counter anything the defense throws at them

But success in these areas isn't so straightforward for players.

They need direction.

As a coach, you must come prepared with the right knowledge and approach so they can grow their skill sets.

The 3 Keys To Success

The knowledge.

Coaches need skill development expertise - the what, the why and the how. This isn't the time to wing it, or piece together drills from online or from your playing days.

Your choice in drills will make a major impact on the improvement your players see.

Your ability to run those drills efficiently and coach for progress will also determine long-term results.

The customization.

You need to tailor your skill development to your players' age and skill levels.

If you're a youth coach, it's important to focus on the fundamentals.

But if you coach higher levels, you should also be able to teach players more advanced skills like layering moves together and developing counters when the defense cuts off your first option.

The emphasis.

Skill development will only be a priority if you make it a priority.

Explain to players why this is so important.

• Block off a part of every practice for skill work
• Set up offseason skills workouts
• Give players a clear plan they can implement to see results

Then consistently coach them on areas for improvement so they're making ongoing improvement.

Easier Said Than Done?

Even the veteran coaches we talk to at times express confusion about how to best approach this critical aspect of coaching...

They wonder things like:

• What core techniques should I teach for each different skill?
• How can I better teach the fundamentals (footwork, stance, positioning)?
• Are my drills really giving players the most "bang for their buck"?
• Am I coaching them in a way that maximizes learning?
• How can I make sure our skills drills complement and enhance each other?
• How often and in what ways should I be correcting players?

I think we need to be fair to coaches at all levels...

Many haven't spent years studying athletic skill development, and they're doing the best they can with limited practice time and a lot to cover.

But what if you could follow
a proven skill development program you knew worked?
