For The Love Of Basketball Fundamentals

I enjoy coaching because I really enjoy the look on a players face when they "get it" and are able to put it into a game and become a better player. I think all players have unlimited potential it's just a matter of learning what's comfortable for the individual. I've coached a women's recreational team for a short period of time and individual players I've played with or against in streetball games. I've been playing basketball since I was 6 or 7 yrs old, and competitively from 15yrs old to now. Also I played my freshman year in high school (where I averaged 6 or 8 points a game, we were suppose to pass the ball 8 or 9 times before a shot, which turned out to be a blessing in disguise because I wasn't very good at scoring off the dribble but I developed exceptional passing skills ) but I only practiced with the varsity the remaining three years because of poor grades. Even though I didn't get to play in the games , in practice however, I thrived on locking down the whichever player I was guarding and being a pest on defense in general. I also won two back-to-back intramural championships my junior and senior year in high-school. So, overall I feel as though I have a lot to teach any willing student, but in reality, every student I ever coached taught me a lot about myself as well.
