WHGBL: Coaches Resources
Teaching Basketball Fundamentals
Fundamentals are an important part of the game of basketball.
Skills will improve through executing properly, repetition, hard work and having fun. The girls must be taught that they will play as they practice, and it is important for them to try new things each and every day. Challenge the girls. Mistakes will happen – they will learn from their mistakes. Be positive, encouraging – catch them doing something right and praise, praise, praise.
The fundamentals below can be taught at every level of our league. This is a guide to help those coaches that have requested some help in the past. Use it as you like. If you need additional help, please contact us. Have a great time with the girls and enjoy the season!
