Why now is the best time to work on shooting

 “You shouldn’t play spring/summer basketball.”  I’ve coached club basketball in the spring/summer on multiple occasions. And this is the exact advice I’ve given many players along the way.  Why?  Because these players would be much better off taking the spring/summer to focus on a critical skill like developing their shot.  If your players can’t make 60% to 70% of perimeter shots unguarded with consistent shooting mechanics, playing dozens of games every summer is a waste of time.  Instead they need to follow a strategic plan that gradually builds their shot one step at a time. When they try to do too much at once, it takes way longer to get better.  However, if they break it down week-by-week to focus on mastering 1 to 3 things, their improvement accelerates.  Now back to the original question: why can’t your players improve their shot while also playing for a spring/summer basketball team?  It’s possible, but it’s often a much longer process that actually causes many players to give up on developing their shot.  Here’s why…  When they work on their shot then go play in a game, many players revert back to their old shooting mechanics--because it’s a habit that their brain is used to!  And without getting into the weeds of motor learning and the way the brain works, if they're constantly switching back and forth between two different movement patterns (habits), they often make little progress in forming the new habit.  Plus, when players start to see themselves missing more often, a couple of things happen:  1 - Their confidence is shattered.  And/or  2 - They revert back to their old shooting form which hurts them even more in the long run.  This is why I wholeheartedly believe the offseason is the best time for your players to improve their shooting mechanics!  Now, it also helps a lot to learn from a proven coach who has already developed great shooters…  One that lays the groundwork and provides step-by-step plans and workouts to get there!  That’s why I’m excited to share [this $50 discount]( on Coach Jim Huber’s Shooting & Scoring System.  This is the most comprehensive and thorough shooting system I’ve ever seen, and there are all kinds of workouts for beginners, advanced players, and everyone in between.  Plus, in addition to the 21 months worth of shooting workouts you’ll receive with this program, Coach Huber takes it even further to also share 15 advanced scoring moves so your players can manufacture great shots against any defender.  The result?  They’ll have everything they need to transform the most important part of their game–shooting and scoring–during the offseason so they can make quantum leaps next season!  Your discount is officially LIVE from now until Sunday:  [Read more about Coach Huber’s Shooting & Scoring System and claim your $50 discount HERE](  All the best,  Joe Haefner Breakthrough Basketball     This email was sent to {EMAIL} because you indicated that you'd like to receive emails and updates from Breakthrough Basketball on 2016-12-16 05:42:39.
