Individual Lessons

The off-season is the time of year when each basketball player is challenged to work hard to improve their individual basketball skills and become a more complete basketball player. During the regular season you usually work on team related offenses and defenses and you usually spend minimal time working on individual basketball skills. I credit much of my success on the basketball court over the years to the fact that I had great individual instruction and learned to develop a great work ethic as a teenager. Many basketball players falsely believe that playing game after game is what will make them a great basketball player. Indeed it helps but they often overlook the fact that basketball is a skill sport, and it is the development of the skills of the game that helps separates the good player from the exceptional one.
