Training
- Ballhandling Group Training
- 4 years
- Confidently handle the ball in any situation and get past defenders with ease! Coach Vanessa’s Ball handling training is a comprehensive dribbling program created to give basketball players the skills needed to handle the basketball on the move, get past defenders, and the confidence to handle the ball in any situation. The program is divided into two levels and each level consists of four 45 minute sessions each one week apart. This gives students the opportunity to practice their new skills before the next class. Level I - Dribblers start with the fundamentals of stationary dribbling and progress to dribbling on the move. Proper stance, the arm dribble, ways to move the ball from hand to hand, two-ball dribbling, and hand-eye coordination will all be covered. Students will also learn the difference between closed-court and open-court dribbling moves and the proper technique for each. Level II - Students will take the skills and moves learned in level I, and apply them to full speed, game-like situations. More advanced moves will be covered including double moves and dribblers will learn the proper way to use ball screens as well as learning to handle ball pressure and trap situations. All students must begin in Level I ball handling. Exceptions will be made for advanced ball handlers at the discretion of the Magic Dribbling staff. Shooting and Dribbling classes will run back-to-back and discounts are given to those attending both classes. Players who attend both classes see the fastest and most lasting improvement to their overall game.
- Point Guard Group Training
- 4 years
- Point guards are the heart of a basketball team. The engine. The quarterback. A basketball team can’t play in sync without a strong point guard leading the way. Point guards need to be able to dribble, pass, play defense and shoot the basketball. But they also have to make quick decisions, read and react, be a leader and be responsible. If you’re a point guard–or want to be a point guard–let Coach Vanessa improve your game. From ball handling to leadership to passing to strength and conditioning, this is the ultimate Pt guard training for playing point guard to the best of your ability–and helping take your team to the top.
- Shooting Clinic Training
- 4 years
- Players who make the most shots, have the most fun! Shooters Club breaks the art of shooting a basketball down to the basics and offers three unique levels of shooting classes. Each level is made up of four 45 minute sessions each one week apart. This gives students the opportunity to practice their new skills before the next class. Level I - Shooters are taught the fundamentals of shooting, including stance, proper hand positioning, the shooting pocket and release point, proper footwork, and the timing and rhythm needed to become a great shooter. Level II - Players will master the jump shot and shooting on the move. A jump shot is an absolute necessity for boys over age 11 and girls over age 13. This level will prepare you to shoot in game situations and give you the moves and footwork needed to get and make open shots. Level III - Shooters will master advanced moves, learn to speed up their shot, and also work from 3-point range and beyond. This level is reserved only for students who have perfected all of the techniques in Levels I and II.
- Private Individual Training
- 4 years
- There is no faster way to improve your game than private skills training. A session typically lasts one hour and is packed with specific drills to fit each athlete’s individual needs. After a skill evaluation, a personalized program will be created to improve weaknesses and build on strengths. Parents and athletes may also request to focus on certain skills, and the program will be tailored exactly to your needs in each area.
