[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How old is your kid? What is your kid’s goal for basketball? [/quote] OP here- kid is 10. Goal is to improve as a player. He enjoys playing and wants to learn plays and develop his skills. I am not expecting him to make his MS or HS basketball team just because the competition is intense.[/quote] Improve as a player, learn plays, develop skills aren’t measurable goals. The goal of enjoying playing can be achieved on his current team. The other things aren’t things you can measure that he achieved or didn’t. It is hard for people to improve as a player without focusing on a specific improvement or even knowing what they are trying to achieve. I recommend measuring how he is doing at something, then setting a goal of how good he would like to get within a certain amount of time. Then creating a plan to improve that skill. Dribbling moves, layup %, free throw %, rebounds, etc are all measurable basketball skills. [/quote]
