Private Basketball Coaching in Sierra County, CA
Expectations for Private Basketball Lessons in Sierra County, CA
At Athletes Untapped, our coaches are focused on setting realistic expectations and goals for the athletes they train. If your son or daughter was cut from the middle school team this year, they can build a plan to put them in a much better position for tryouts next year. If your child didn’t play as much as they thought they should’ve this past season, whether it’s for AAU or school basketball, your private coach will ask why and address the weaknesses in their game to make sure they see the court more next year. If they truly want to earn an NCAA college basketball scholarship and they’re in a position to take advantage of the opportunity, your private coach can talk to them about the recruiting process, what it's like to be a college athlete, and how to handle competing at a high level. At Athletes Untapped, we’re not trying to spread false hope or make promises that your son or daughter will become a professional player. Our private basketball coaches are upfront, considerate, and willing to work with your child’s specific goals and needs to help them become the best player, and person, they can possibly be!

Example of a Private Basketball Workout in Sierra County, CA
Wondering what to expect when you show up to a private basketball workout in Sierra County, CA? Athletes Untapped knows the answer because we are the private coaching pros. While your specific workout plan will vary depending on your personal basketball trainer, most trainers mix shooting, handles, off-ball moves, footwork, agility, and sometimes strength training (if you’re not too tired by the end of the workout). At first, some of the drills might seem impossibly hard or the movements might feel awkward – and that’s great! Private basketball workouts aren’t supposed to be easy. If Steph Curry and Kyrie Irving did simple workout routines, do you think they’d be where they are today? Nope!
Basketball Training Programs in Sierra County, CA?
Basketball programs in Sierra County, CA vary from one on one, to group, to clinic style trainings. Your choice will depend on your athlete’s needs. If they don’t mind sharing time with other kids, then a group or clinic setting might work. If they want individual attention and to truly hone specific aspects of their game, one on one personal training is probably better. Whatever you choose, make sure you find the right private basketball coach first based on their location and background.
What Skills Can a Personal Basketball Coach in Sierra County, CA Improve?
There are two types of skills private basketball coaches in Sierra County, CA 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.
