What can my child do at home?
How to help your child:
conditioning - a big thing, have them do laps around the house. It is hard to concentrate on the skill at hand if they are working too hard to keep up. I usually tell them to run around the house 5 times without stopping everyday when they get home from school.
dribbling - have them dribble the ball for 10minutes or so instead of watching TV. 70% of the game is ball movement, being able to handle the ball well is a must. Just walking around dribbling and not looking at the ball will increase their skill (even if its only 5 minutes)
passing - pass with them for a few minutes, chest pass and bounce pass. SSP (squeeze, step, push)
shooting - you don't need a hoop to develop your shooting muscles, just pushing the ball up(with proper form) in the air improves their control and strength.
bottom line - every little bit helps, you don't have to set aside an hour, just when there is 5 minutes of "being bored" pick the ball up and dribble.
