EFFECTIVE BASKETBALL SKILLS TRAINING

  • Hand Control: Teach proper hand positioning on the basketball for effective control. Emphasize fingertip control for better dribbling maneuverability.

    Low Dribble: Practice dribbling close to the ground to maintain better control and make it harder for defenders to steal the ball.
