A must have for every guard!!

Do you struggle with getting blocked around the basket? Do you struggle with getting knocked off your line going to the basket?

Try this VEER STEP that we are teaching some of our Japanese Female Pro Guard in the clip. Maintain your dribble. Engage the defenders body the entire time. Hard dribble on the last one while stepping with your inside foot into the defenders body (foot & shoulder) and jump off your outside leg.

Every top pro guard around the world has this move 💎

Demonstrate. Quickly teach the WHY (IQ behind it). The athletes duplicate it (rep it out).

Something I’ve come to understand after spending most of my life around basketball is that we might have the whole idea of success backwards.

We teach young athletes to work incredibly hard so that one day they can experience what it feels like to be successful. But what if the greatest reward for all that work isn’t waiting for them somewhere in the future? What if it’s already happening? The friendships they’re building, the people they’re meeting, the places they’re going, the person they’re becoming and the memories they’re creating along the way.

Think about that for a second.. What if success isn’t something we eventually arrive at, but something we’re experiencing every single day while we’re busy trying to get there?

Maybe that’s the greatest lesson basketball has to offer us about life. Don’t become so focused on building an incredible future that you fail to recognize the incredible life you’re already living.

Your basketball changes direction… but does your BODY? 👀🏀

One of the biggest challenges we see with younger athletes is learning how to get their entire body working together when changing direction through their legs.

Watch how Coach Nolan demonstrates these 3 KEYS! 🔑🔑🔑

🔑 1. TURN YOUR HIPS & KNEES! Your lower body needs to rotate together in the direction you’re going. Don’t leave your hips facing one way while trying to move the other.

🔑 2. TURN YOUR SHOULDERS & HEAD! Your upper body needs to follow that same movement. Hips, knees, shoulders and head all turning together, not as separate movements.

🔑 3. MAKE IT ONE MOVEMENT! This is the BIG ONE! The ball and your entire body need to change direction at the same time. Not the ball first, then your feet, then your shoulders. ONE coordinated, explosive movement!

The goal isn’t just to get the basketball through your legs. It’s to teach your body how to change direction efficiently so you can eventually do it at GAME SPEED!

Slow it down. Teach the details. Build the coordination. Then add speed! 💯

Let’s clear something up about footwork coming out of triple threat.

According to the FIBA Official Basketball Rules, the ball does NOT have to hit the floor before your pivot foot leaves the ground.

It simply has to leave your hand BEFORE that pivot foot lifts.

That’s a big difference, especially when teaching moves like the rocker-step (shimmy-step).

If your pivot foot lifts before you release the ball to start your dribble, it’s a travel. If the ball leaves your hand first, it’s legal.
