Evolution Getting Started Packet

Evolution Getting Started Packet Welcome to Evolution Basketball. We are excited to have your child begin training with us. We ask you to review the information in this getting started packet to better understand how our program works. If you have any questions about the training or any other general questions please do not hesitate to ask your trainer.

Information about training for PARENTS to think about: - There are different types of training within the private and group training sessions. We conduct the training sessions with three separate aspects in mind. 1. "General Skills". We look at the general skills training as something that all players need. For example, ball handling, passing, layups, footwork, and pivoting. These are skills that are needed before moving on to more advanced skill sets. 2. "Position Specific". These are going to be the skills that are needed to play a certain position. For example, the post players will be working on their back to the basket moves, finishing shots around the basket, and boxing out/rebounding. While the guards will be doing more advanced ballhandling and passing skills, understanding attacking angles from the perimeter, and shooting off of the catch and dribble. 3. "Shooting Mechanics". Teaching shooting is extremely important in the game of basketball. The mechanics of shooting are very specific skills that take time to develop. Teaching shooting form is something that we suggest doing in private workouts. Because of the specific nature of shooting mechanics it becomes more difficult to teach the more players that are involved. Also, each kid has different problems with their shot and getting to focus just on that players mechanics can speed up the learning curve. - Youth League players generally practice once or twice a week. At this frequency, there is only so much that the players will be able to improve. Adding in a workout or two during the winter season can greatly improve the players progress over the winter season. Like anything else in life the more time you put into it, the quicker you will improve. - No matter how good a coach is at any level they cannot focus on each specific players needs in a team practice. That's where we can help develop each players individual skills. During those team practices coaches are forced to focus on running plays, team defense, etc. They don't have time to focus on the kids individual skills like their ball handling, passing, footwork, and especially shooting mechanics.
