The Tryout season is around the corner! This is the time when parents and “borderline” kids become extremely anxious. Kids are trying to make up for lost time by “cramming” to prepare for tryouts.
.
Parents, remember pulling all-nighters before an exam when you had months to study? Your body and brain knows it can’t retain large amounts of information.
.
Coaches have heard every excuse under the sun…
.
•My parents had me at the cottage
•I was injured so I couldn’t train
•They didn’t have a ball at the resort
•I played soccer all summer
.
The most pivotal development happens during the summer when the stress of completion is gone. The mind and body is relaxed and goes into an exploratory and creative mode. Players can now build, correct and repeat skills to separate themselves from the casuals and catch up to the “talented” players.

Mentorship in its purest form. Pro hooper @onlyrealzzz giving a bit of his time to high schooler @davidruta_ . Throwing the ladder 🪜down so others can climb up is the essence of “each one teach one”. Thank you JD! . #mentorship #giveback #bigs #family #development #capitalcourts

Hoopers. Being absolutely exhausted and drained after a workout doesn’t mean you had a productive workout! Especially if new skills are being trained. . If you’re just looking to burn calories, awesome, Mission accomplished! However, if you’re looking to work on specific technical skills, sometimes the workout requires slow and methodical movements. Reducing the speed allows you to focus on getting feedback from your body or other stimuli (ball, floor, other players). . Once the skill is acquired, the pace can be increased to mimic game-like situations. . #levelstothisthing 📈 #worksmart

Part 1. “To The Max” @_realmaxb14 @ottawablackjacks . Sometimes when you’re so dominant on the defensive end, you often fall into a trap of resting on your defensive gifts. To add new offensive layers, we first have to get the body and brain to normalize new movement patterns. . Max has been grinding in the lab over the past few weeks to create a new base to turn weaknesses into weapons. 🔪💣🔫 . #midragegame #midi #pulluponme #footwork #handles #develolmentliveshere #prohooper

The power to connect is greater than > any skill players acquire in the CC lab. . Positivity is the foundation that sessions are built on. The sky is the limit for kids of all levels when the learning environment makes them sweat and smile at the same time. 😅 . #levelstothegame #positivevibesonly #technical #pshychology #workhardhavefun #buildingkidsup

Sometimes elite players need basic explanations to understand the “WHY” of a particular skill. Hard hitting drills are great for highlight reels and clicks but most results are generated when clients understand what the heck they’re working on. Breaking skills down into smaller understandable components and concepts helps at the intro level and the elite level. . . #communication #levelstothisthing #results #developmentliveshere #capitalcourts #1on1training . @itsyujen 🎥
