It's natural to focus on offensive abilities when practicing the sport of basketball, but your practice time needs to focus on defense. Basketball games are won with a good defense. If your team doesn't have a good defense, you're not going to make it far in a game.
Concentrate on your strong points if you want to improve your game. Your skills may not turn you into the star player, but knowing how to make the most of your skills will make you a more valuable player. Understand where you excel, and work on those talents until they are perfected.
In order to help you improve your basketball acumen you should watch how the pros play. Whether seeing an all-pro on YouTube, attending a game in person, or sitting on the couch with buddies to watch your local professional team, there are many chances to observe the best. You will see that each great player has certain skills that make him great and you can practice what you see him doing.
Work on being able to receive a pass. Practice catching errant throws along with perfect passes. During a hectic game, every throw is not going to be perfect. You and your team mates will be happier if you (and they) are more versatile.
Completing passes to your teammates is just as important as dribbling the ball. Playing basketball without dribbling is very challenging, but your entire team will quickly improve their passing skills. The accuracy of passes will greatly improve over time and the drill will become a lot easier.
Your child should work on their core muscles if they want to become a basketball player in high school. Focus on hips, lower back and abs. The core connects the lower extremities to the upper extremities. Without a strong core, your performance may be limited. A solid and strong core lets force that comes from the legs get used for beneficial movements when playing, like faster running and higher jumping.
Create and stick to a routine each time you prepare to shoot a free throw. This can include the number of times you dribble, how you position your feet, or anything else. Don't dilly dally, but do complete your ritual.
It is important that you can clearly see everything that is occurring during a game. This is not just to make reading the scoreboard easier, but also to facilitate the making of shots and catching of passes. Your peripheral vision should be the best it can be. When you can see the big picture, you can react to anything.
You now know that there are countless tactics to make you a better player. Many techniques can be mastered easily through repetition. Practice is really the secret to becoming a master of anything, so be sure you have a hoop, ball and free time available regularly. Practice alone, with friends or with your team, just so you can better your game.
