What Skills Can a Personal Basketball Coach in Albany Improve?

What Skills Can a Personal Basketball Coach in Albany Improve?

There are two types of skills private basketball coaches in Albany can help young players improve: hard skills & soft skills. Hard skills are the aspects of a player’s game like footwork, form shooting, 3-point shooting, dribbling, rebounding, defense, etc. Any private basketball coach who’s worth training with should have knowledge of most hard skills, and expertise in at least one area. On the other hand, private basketball coaches should also focus on the soft skills – mental toughness, grit, live game situations, and how to handle yourself in the face of adversity. All young athletes will be challenged at some point in their life. Whether it happens early or late, it’s inevitable. Training with a personal basketball coach who knows how to prepare an athlete for any situation they might face in a game goes a long way for the player’s development. It’s good to focus on the hard skills, but our coaches at Athletes Untapped do a great job at building an all-around player who’s mentally, physically, and technically sound.
