Little Legends League-wide Clinic Details

Concept

The Little Legends Clinic is a great developmental program that will provide specific training to get to the next level.  The focus will be on specific individual and team drills, that will also instill confidence in the boys as the progress from the first to the last clinic.  Since the clinic will be at the beginning of each week, the player will be able to practice what he learned during the remainder of the week, at team practices and games.

Clinic Coaches

Our clinic coaches have outstanding basketball knowledge and first-hand college or high school experience.  Most are players who still actively play competitively in our adult Legends program, in the "Elite" or "A" divisions.  Your child will easily relate to our terrific coaches and learn a great deal from them.

Below is the bio of our Head Clinic Coach - Steve Bryant:

Steve is originally from Chicago IL. where he played High School Basketball for William Howard Taft. He won the Chicago League Association Championship and was named MVP - Most Valuable Point Guard.  Steve also served in the United States Air Force where he played basketball for the traveling Air Force Basketball team. RAF Alconbury.  He received a contract to play in the British Baskeball League with London United in 1987.

Here is what people are saying about Steve and his coaching abilities:

"I have had Steve personally coach my 9 year old son over the last year and am very impressed with his ability to quickly assess players' strengths and where to focus on making improvements.  He is great at working with kids.  He runs them through shooting, passing, ball handling drills that the kids enjoy, and that also help improve skills and emphasize proper technique.  He gives kids instructions on skills to work on at home during the week between clinic sessions." - Amy F.

Clinic Focus

The participants will be divided by skill.  Little Legends will provide a no-nonsense basketball education for players of all positions.  At Little Legends, your child will learn that character comes first.  He will learn smart, tough and intelligent basketball while focusing on the following concepts:

• A shooter's mindset
• Excellent ball handling skills
• Excellent passing skills
• Becoming a dominant rebounder
• Explosive one-on-one offensive moves
• Dominating and dictating from the defensive side
• Mental and physical toughness training

For more advanced players, we will incorporate the Recoil 360 Dynamic Resistance/Assistance Trainer (Resistance builds power while assistance develops speed).
