Readiness Skills Come back weekly for more coaching from Coach Enns. (Bio)
The process of receiving the ball involves a number of tasks. When these tasks are performed well we can refer to them as skills. These include readiness skills which you perform as an individual player, one on one skills in which you perform the readiness skills against an opponent, and team play skills in which you perform those skills in a framework which has been accepted and adopted by your whole team. In other words, you cannot perform individual skills effectively unless they are performed in conjunction with what your four teammates are doing on the court. Next lesson - Receiving the ball cleanly. |

Drill 1 - Readiness Skills The next step is to go to an immediate initiation of a pass, a dribble or a shot so as to give the defender as little time as possible to react. In other words, assuming the triple threat position and holding it there results in wasted time that will benefit only the defender. For example, if the player is in the backcourt and receives a pass he should immediately initiate a forward pass looking toward his basket. If he chooses not to complete the pass this initiation will be seen as a fake and he can then either make a different pass or dribble. I recommend that the player always look to pass before dribbling. This initiation might be very short before choosing to dribble, but at least he has always looked for the possible quicker advancement of the ball. |

The general purpose for pre-season basketball training is to prepare the athletes for the demands of the upcoming season. It is the job of the Strength and Conditioning coach to get the athlete in the best shape possible to cope with the rigorous practice and game schedule that will follow. The basketball season often begins 17th of November and continues until March. This five-month season is very demanding, even for highly trained athletes. Often the first two weeks of the season may include double sessions. This sheer volume of training is severe. Once the regular season begins, the on-court volume often decreases. The main objective of pre-season conditioning is to get the players ready for the end of November and to help them maintain that level of conditioning throughout the season. |
