Individual Basketball Training
About
I started my coaching career 7 years ago at the age of 17 while I was still playing. I have been assistant coach in professional basketball academies (from U12 to U18) and semi professional team (third division) in Italy. I have had the chance to coach French travel teams (U12 boys and girls, U14) while I was working in Paris for a basketball organization 2 years ago. Moreover, I run my basketball organization in Italy which plans basketball camps in all the Italian territory (local daycamp 100% in english). During summer I also partecipate to overseas camps in UCLA and Georgetown University. In summer I give basketball individual training , clinics and private lesson for kids of all ages.
I possess the Italian basketball coaching card and the USA Basketball Gold coaching license.
I have had the chance to coach and be on the field with incredible coaches during my experiences
I use my own personal experiences and knowledge to build up and create specific session for each player. I usually structure the workout after seeing characteristics, level and kid's requests on the first day. I like to understand what the guy wants and where he/she wants to get. I love to work and stress a lot on fundamentals in order for the kid to get better in a shorter period of time.
I highly recommend 1h/1h30m workout not more. Usually for kids and teens it is hard to keep the focus and intensity for more than this time. The session is structured with a first part of warm up including footwork, ball handling and shooting drills, a second central part with dedicated drills and exercise on the chosen fundamental. Finally a third part usually dedicated to shooting drills and special drills.
I love to create and set drills combining more fundamentals and make drills more exciting.
