Youth players
Working with kidsPraise effort more than skill—keep them excited.
Use challenges like “Who can dribble the longest?” or “Who can make the most layups in 30 seconds?”make drills into games. Focus on basic dribbling, passing, and shooting.
Show, don’t just tell—demonstrate movements clearly.
Break things down into easy steps. For example, for shooting: “Bend your knees, aim, follow through.”Celebrate small improvements.
Working with teenagersBegin with a quick icebreaker or a fun warm-up drill to get them engaged.
Show enthusiasm—teens feed off energy, so if you're hyped, they'll be more into it.
Teens love competition, so add mini-games, challenges, or team drills to keep things exciting.
Try small 1v1, 2v2, or timed shooting challenges. Show that you respect them, and they'll respect you back. If possible, connect with them on their level—maybe mention an NBA player they like or ask about their favorite teams.
