Beginner training plan
Your first trainingWith teaching beginners it’s best to get a baseline assessment of skill. A first lesson for a beginner would be more about seeing what skill they may have with little correction - this ensures that I know what areas to focus on more heavily as lessons progress. Basketball is all about tackling skills in pieces, not everything at once. Pick a skill to focus on and then make the adjustments and corrections from there to further improve that skill. Then rinse and repeat for the next skill.
Training 2-3Once I get a better understanding of what skill may need to be focused on the most, both the 2nd and 3rd lesson would be more detailed about correcting and making improvements to such skill.
Training 4-10Lesson 4-10 would incorporate what was worked on in lessons 2-3 and would further add more challenge based workouts that focus on specific reaching specific goals.
Training 11+From lesson 11 onward, lessons would continue to stay consistent with skill development and further incorporating working with skills that may need more attention as well.

Advanced training plan
Your first trainingSimilarly to teaching beginners, it’s best to get a baseline assessment of skill. A first lesson would be more about seeing what skill they may have with little correction - this ensures that I know what area(s) to focus on more heavily as lessons progress.
Training 2-3Lessons 2-3 would include tackling a specific skill that needs more improvement with a heavier emphasis on detail, IQ, and understanding how developing said skill holds value to their own game.
Training 4-10Lessons 4-10 would be heavily focused on challenging each athlete with a focus on improving struggling areas through heavy incorporation of correct form, technique, and intensity.
Training 11+Lesson 11 onward would include upping the intensity all while keeping form and technique at upmost importance in order to simulate game like situations and playing under fatigue.

Youth players
Working with kidsAs kids have the most time for improvement, focusing on having kids do everything correctly is the most important (i.e., correct form and technique) - this helps build a solid foundation for long-term skill development.

Working with teenagersAs athletes get older, the emphasis on performance is only that much higher. In order to teach teenagers, the focus would be heavily on improving select skill areas the would be most needed and/or used for games at the high school level.

What you need to bringSneakers and their own personal basketball (if preferred)

Coach Joe was very professional and made my son feel comfortable right away. The session was structured, high-energy, and focused on fundamentals while still challenging him. I really appreciated how patient and detailed he was with corrections it built my son's confidence. He left motivated and excited to keep training. Highly recommend Coach Joe.
