[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm considering this myself. Going back to the multi-season rec thing. Off season AAU basketball is underwhelming. I get it kids do it to keep accumulating the skills and to gain exposure for recruiters, but it gets to be a drag. It's much more casual than you would otherwise think. More like showboating pickup games than real teams. The kids get to show off their skills, but [b]the coaches don't do many drills to develop[/b]. Yes, many of those rec coaches are pretty good.[/quote] That would be very frustrating and make me want to stop with the AAU craziness. What made AAU worth it for us was the coaches’ commitment to my kid’s development, including challenging him to improve in ways that the HS coach didn’t bother with (e.g. making my tall lazy kid sprint all out on every drill in every practice or get benched, and making him drive to the basket instead of just hitting 3s).
