Conditioning and Footwork for Youth Basketball

Book excerpt: Want the advantage that conditioning and proper footwork gives your players (or team) in the game of Youth Basketball? When a player improves their basketball footwork skills, their game improves! Footwork is the foundation for the rest of your game. Ever wonder why most of your teams’ mistakes and turnovers occur in the second half or mainly in the fourth quarter? Most likely, poor conditioning is the cause. Could possibly be a lack of basketball conditioning drills being run in practice? This booklet covers the popular conditioning and footwork basics and the drills used in youth basketball. We also cover the basics of Stretching out (and explain the differences in Stretching and Warm Up). The information in this booklet has everything you need to begin implementing a Conditioning plan for your team. Packed with pictures, diagrams, and video clips! “Read” the information in the booklet – then “View” the demonstrations on the Video Clips using the links. An excellent "Interactive" instructional tool, resource, and reference for youth basketball coaches and players.
