I need some help! I went to college playing basketball. I have taken on my son's elementary school's basketball team this year. It's a small, private school and they let the 3rd-6th graders play on the same team. All of the 6th graders have been moved up to Jr High b/c they didn't have enough kids! So, essentially, I have about 13 3rd-5th graders I am coaching. I have kids that can't even get the ball up to the hoop to kids who think they are Jordan (and they are SO far from it).
I am hoping to find some fellow coaches who have some good sites to find drills, plays, etc. I know there a gazillion of them out there. I don't have time to look at all of them and hope to find some good ideas for practice. These boys don't have any scheduled games, I am just working with them to teach them the basics and hopefully next year, the school will get something scheduled. All they want to do iS scrimmage and believe me when I say, they are not ready, they just run wild when we try that! But they say practice is BORING! lol Yes, thats why its called practice!!!
Just looking for some good sites to find some fun stuff for them to do or good ideas. I don't want to be teaching them stuff that is over their heads (like I tend to want to). I want to make it fun and make them learn! Help!!!!
