Achieve Your Dreams Basketball Retired
coaching legend Terry Thompson, along with highly successful coaches Bob
Amendola and Craig Hetz, are all dedicated to
sharing their proven teaching and structured coaching talents with aspiring
athletes so that the athletes may “Achieve Your basketball Dreams”. AYD
Basketball, through its camps, AAU teams, tournaments, and instruction,
provide off season learning and training programs for the individual player,
as well as school and AAU teams and coaches. How
will AYD Basketball benefit you? We
believe it takes 3 things to become a good basketball player: (1) Good
Coaching, (2) Work Ethic, and (3) Good Competition. Coaching: Our
coaches will teach and build proper fundamentals essential to successful
playing skills. We will teach and emphasize the development of good
playing habits and to lose the bad ones. Skill is the divider, we will
help you recognize your weaknesses and improve them, as well as identify your
strengths and play to them. You will learn winning strategies and
tactics from coaches who were winners. Most importantly we will
coach you not to just look at what’s happening while you play, but rather the
ability to see what’s going on the court, see the open man, see where to take
the ball, see the guy that’s defended, and see who is open on the
break. The ability to see where to make plays comes with improved
knowledge of the game. Work
Ethic: You
will learn how to improve your practice skills, how to work with intensity,
and how to persevere with concentration and discipline. We will
teach you how to become a more coachable player and how to better communicate
with players and coaches. Most importantly, we will coach you how to
listen to what you are being told, not just hear it. Most players only
hear; they don’t listen. You will learn to listen to what is being said
and listen to what is expected of you in your role as a part of a team. Good
Competition: AYD
programs and events will provide you the opportunity to compete against the
best regional competition available, both in game situations as well as
practice settings. Our
outstanding directors, coaches and counselors are dedicated to making the
camps, AAU teams, and tournaments the best experience possible. |
