Description

NBN Dribbling Academies are focused on the development of ball handling skills. NBN’s elite coaching staff created drills that will take each athlete’s dribbling skills to the next level. Skills and techniques will be practiced weekly. This provides consistent coaching, structured scheduling and additional practice with repetition of skills. When consistently applied, players are not only able to utilize these techniques in actual game settings, but the skill improvement is proven to build confidence on and off the court. Our ultimate goal is the refinement of dribbling and ball handling skills while creating athletes who love to play.

Level of Instruction: Beginner players have a basic enjoyment of basketball; they can focus for 55 minutes on repetitive skill work. Players must be coachable.
