How To Fix Mindless Shooting Reps

In today’s newsletter… - How To Fix Mindless Shooting Reps -  - If You’re Looking for More Shooting Instruction…  --------------------------------------------------------------- How To Fix Mindless Shooting Reps Ages: Youth, High School, College/Pro Audience: Parents, Coaches, Players In a previous email, we talked about [why your shooting drills don’t work.]( Even if you change your shooting drills and follow the advice, you can still fall into the trap of going through the motion and taking mindless shooting repetitions. Your goal is to be engaged and focused on every repetition. Many refer to this as deliberate practice. When your mind starts wondering and you start thinking about other things, this does not result in the best repetitions to try to replicate a game. Three ways to fix this are to: - Vary your shots between repetitions - different location, different cut, off the dribble vs. off the catch. -  - Shoot against live defenders. You can play 1v1 or even 2v2 and 3v3 if you have enough players. -  - Vary your shooting workouts - work on different types of shots day to day… fast break, down screens, flare cuts, ball screens, etc. However, another great way to eliminate mindless reps with block practice where you shoot the same shot over and over (block practice)… Play Beat the Pro Player starts with 5 points at the start of the drill. Scoring is: Miss is +1, make is -1. The Objective is to get to 0 before getting to 10. You can play this game with any type of shot or shooting drill -- free throws, wing shots, shooting off the dribble, etc. You can also adjust the starting score and have the players start at 10... trying to get to 0 before reaching 20. This is a great way to keep focused on every repetition to maximize your improvement.  --------------------------------------------------------------- If You’re Looking for More Shooting Instruction… We have different [basketball camps]( that fit different needs that you can read about below.
