1. Over the course of the course of the 2012-2013 basketball season my goal as coach “is
to teach the importance of team work as well as focusing on the basic basketball
fundamentals.”
2. Our practices will be instrumental in preparing the student athletes for real game
situations. During this valuable time it will be necessary for each student athlete to focus and come prepared to practice so that we can work on all basketball related drills and
game situations.
3. Over the course of the season the team will learn 7-8 plays. The first practice will allow
me to gauge each and everyone’s skill sets. Moving forward from that practice we will
begin adding one play per practice that we will utilize during the game situations.
4. We will primarily implement a Run & Gun/motion style offense which will have everyone
running up and down the court at a high tempo so conditioning will be important for each
student athlete. “I will not run the kids to a point of exhaustion however each
student athlete will work hard and will become better conditioned.”
5. Everyone will play in every game unless a parent states that an individual is sick and
unable to perform or if a parent just doesn’t want the student athlete to participate.
6. If you don’t attend practice you will still play however it’s paramount that each student
athlete attends practice.
7. This will be a great season and there will be no pressure to win games, we will win some
and lose some. I’m more interested in witnessing the student athletes coming to
together collectively to score baskets and work as team on both ends of the court.
8. Everyone will get a chance to start at least one (1) game.
