During the fall and winter, we will use basketball to teach the kids character skills. To see which character traits we focus on, you can look at my blog, "Pull the Rope: 15 Principles to Create a Healthy Team Culture."
Our weight training sessions will be sport-specific. We will train the kids to be explosive athletes rather than bodybuilders. It's natural for kids to be sore during the first two weeks until their bodies adjust. It's a good idea for them to get into the weight room now to build a base. You can click on the videos below to glimpse our weight training sessions.
Now is also a great time for the kids to work on individual improvement. Below are videos showing different shooting drills they can use.
