Basketball Skills Training

Hi Bob! Thank you for reaching out about our Skills Training sessions at Holy Names School! Our Middle School Prep program offers a strong emphasis on skill development with experienced and trained coaches to get your player ready for the upcoming season. We aim to provide each player the opportunity to experience a high number of repetitions in various aspects of the game of basketball. Whether that is shooting, ball handling, passing, defense, or footwork, our highly trained staff will lead players through fun, multiple repetition drills and competitions. We believe that the best way to learn is to —see, hear, and do. This is fast paced environment where improving individual skill is fun! Since these session focus more on individual skill work, there are not official games played. They will have some scrimmage (player(s) vs player(s)) time to review and implement teaching points of the day but no official 5 vs 5 games. The skills they learn will help with their overall confidence when they start playing on their school teams. To your specific questions, our coaches are great with engaging players and finding how to work with them regardless of if they are shy or not! We respect players as individuals and will make sure they thrive. No game time so everyone will have the same time working their individual skill work. Coaches will be able to tailor to different skill levels allowing all players from beginners to advanced to build on their existing skills. Overall, these sessions are smaller to provide an intimate learning environment for all types of players! -
