Next
Level Hoops (in
partnership with the Winnipeg
Wolves) is pleased to announce a two week spring training
opportunity for girls entering
Grades 7 & 8 and high school (Grades 9-12).
The training academy will run the last two weeks of June of this year (weekday
nights from June 22nd to July 4th). The training academy
will be dedicated to skill development and improving basic one, two and three
man concepts as they relate to a team. This initiative will be run by
experienced coaches who have had success at all levels of the game.
Next
Level Hoops will offer girls an opportunity to develop
fundamental skills that will easily adapt to any team style of play. The
coaching staff will focus on individual skill development both offensively and
defensively. Movement with and without the ball, passing, screening on and away
from the ball, reading the defence, and penetration and kick will be stressed.
Defensively players will learn one on one defence as well as team defensive
concepts with an emphasis on rotation and help. The first hour and fifteen
minutes of each session will be dedicated to skill development with the
remaining forty-five minutes for full court game play.
Additional emphasis will also be placed on game strategy,
understanding individual and game weaknesses and strengths of themselves and
their opponents.
For a total basketball experience register early as only
twenty girls will be registered for each session. All players should have a
high level of skill level, commitment, experience and expect to work hard.
