Weekly Update
Every week to two weeks, we will post our weekly update that will provide information on what we are working on, the upcoming schedule of events, and where each girl will be playing. Although this is outlined in advance, we appreciate your understanding that circumstances will sometimes require us to be flexible and deviate from our original assignments and schedule.
Current Focus
This week we will continue to work on offensive and defensive schemes. Defensively, we’ve improved but are continuing to emphasize pressure on the ball, jump to the ball, on-ball, deny and help position. We will review our 1-2-2 full court defense and possibly add a wrinkle to the press. Offensively, we will focus on the 4 out/1 in offense and one or two set plays as well as review our basic inbounds plays and offensive and defensive alignment for the initial jump ball. We’re encouraging offensive discipline in trying to get our players to run through the plays. Good things happen when we run the offense.
Each week we focus on developing shooting (including layups), ball handling and passing skills. Players will participate in the free-throw ladder. We always work on transition, emphasizing the fast break. We will reinforce boxing out and defensive position. And we will use daily game situations (controlled 5 on 5) to reinforce all skills and schemes taught. We have seen steady improvement thanks to the hard work and coachability of our players.
