Working a coach Don Meyer Basketball Camp was the single best experience that I had as a coach. It taught me how to teach the game and most importantly how to relate to players quickly and effectively. It was expected of every player and coach to take notes each day of the camp. Over the course of the seven summers that I worked camp I kept notes in several notebooks and would later compile them into a single PDF document. Now for the first time these notes are available to CoachHemi.com members here.
Topics that are included:
TEAM ATTITUDE
Goal Setting
Motivational Speaking
Spirituality Devotionals
Mental Approach for Coaches
Ball Handling
Triple Threat Teaching Points (Starts, Stops & Turns)
Shooting Progression
Lay-ups & Free Throws Teaching Points
Defensive Technique & Drills
Attacking Pressure
Passing & Receiving
Moving without the Basketball
Setting & Using Screens
Rebounding
Dribbling & Dribble Moves
Zone Attack
Individual Development Workouts
Team Ideas
Post Play
Perimeter Play
