Off-season fun

5/6/2014

The start to this off-season has reminded me of all the things I love about the game of basketball and coaching at the high school level.  We have had kids from every grade level continuing to work on their game and improve for next season.  Our high school girls have been in the weight room 3 days a week at 6 AM for 6 weeks now and the results are starting to show.  Big shout out to Bri Patria for bench pressing 100 lbs last Friday!  We have also had a lot of fun at the youth levels so far this off-season.  Our 5th/6th AAU team as been competing against some older multi-town teams and has battled in every games!  Seeing our older girls interact with the younger team has really reminded me that what we are trying to do is bigger than just the game of basketball.  

That being said, the off-season is a time to improve your basketball skills and take your game to the next level if you have goals to accomplish next winter.  What are you doing to improve yourself in the off-season?  Are you taking 300-500 shots a day at game speed?  Are you working on your ball-handling for 15-20 minutes a day?  When you play pick-up or AAU are you challenging yourself on defense on EVERY play?  Picking up at 1/2 court?  Staying in a stance when you are in help and maintaining a high level of intensity? (if you want to know what that means, go watch Jenna Gregoire play sometime).  Are you going to go to any camps this summer? If so what ones?  

Reply to this post and let everyone know what your off-season goals are and what you are going to do to accomplish them.

GREAT START - HUNGRY FOR MORE

Week 1 was a great week for Simsbury Girls Basketball.  Two very convincing wins with great defense and offensive efficiency on display.  There are some tough games coming up and a lot still to prove this season.  I couldn't be more excited about what we have done, but I am hungry to drive towards our next success.  

Team - here is your homework assignment in absence of practice tonight.  Post a comment to this blog answering the following questions:

1.  What has been your favorite part of the season to this point?

2.  Coach Zullo annoys me when he...(yes you can pick on me)

3.  I like it when Coach Zullo...(yes you have to be nice to me after you pick on me)

4.  What are your individual goals for this season?

5.  What are your team goals for this season?



Have some fun with it - Coach Z
