Private Basketball Training Parents Review Austin Youth Basketball

I want to start by saying thank you.  With the few lessons that Christopher has taken, it has impacted his game tremendously in a positive way.  From being comfortable at the C/F position to wanting to play guard and move the ball around.

Last week he did a basketball camp at Akins and they were impressed with his footwork.  Honestly, I have to thank you for that, because I really did not work with him on his footwork.

So, if you can send me some information on your basketball camps, I can run them past both my kids to see if this is something they want to do in August.

In the fall, he decided not to play football, because he loving basketball way too much.  I told him, whenever, he is ready to play he can play.  I’m the dad that won’t force my kids to do things their heart is not into.  If their is something they really want to do, I’m there for them.

My wife also agreed with me, that you love the game and you are a great coach, so we thank you.  Trust me, my son and I are very picky who coaches him.

Killer Crossover aka UTEP 2 Step

Superhandles has been accused of being more show than go.   Certainly he knows how to wow a crowd.  After viewing tons of Tim Hardaway crossover footage, I felt nobody broke down the move better than Superhandles.  The  key is to get lower than your opponent.  Most crossover moves I see performed by today’s young players are not low enough.  Our summer camps and private training will teach thise move made famous by Tim Hardaway.

Would My Child Benefit From Private Training?

Private Basketball Training (http://www NULL.austinyouthbasketball NULL.com/private-training-options/) for Austin Middle and High School Players

I recently have had some huge  success while teaching kids in the private basketball training sessions.  My wife will be happy to tell anyone that I am prone to patting myself on the back so I  evaluated exactly why the kids had made such impressive breakthroughs.  The children were varied in age (10-16), skill levels,  and gender.  Here is what they did have in common:

  • Unbridled joy for the game.  Each of their faces lit up as they entered the gym and several million dollar smiles ensued over our time together.
  • Each player had above average listening skills and a high aptitude for learning.
  • Each player viewed the hard work we did as a game.   They were energized by our activity.
  • Three of the Four Players shared their goals without me asking.  The fourth player had some very definite ideas about direction when asked.
  • None of the four were  spectacular “thoroughbred” athletes.  None were accustomed to muscling thru, outjumping, or flying by their competition at an elite level.

This list of attributes is not meant to exclude someone from being a private training candidate.  It is merely some notes I compiled in evaluating them in order to customize a program for them.  If your child shows these attributes, they may be a fit for our private training.  Austin Youth Basketball offers limited private training sessions for children 8 to 18.
