About

6

Jr. NBA Canadian Sport for Life (CS4L) Principles for Jr. NBA Coaches

  • Have fun and teach through games.

  • Winning comes from doing something well, not from keeping score.

  • Use the modified equipment (lower baskets and smaller balls).

  • The curriculum has been designed to maximize the frequency of “touches” each player gets with the basketball and includes shooting, passing, and ball handling drills.

  • Group kids according to developmental age and NOT by chronological age.

  • Ensure maximum participation and remember that all players are equal.
