Skill development
Our staff at JAG Basketball have a combined 70 years of real life basketball experience. Hard to teach what you don’t know right? We believe our staff has experienced every level of basketball including the NBA. We focus on teaching the game in order. You should learn to crawl before sprinting. In basketball terms, learning to attack out of the triple threat position, learning to set and use screens, cutting without the basketball are the beginning of the learning curve! Not twenty dribbles to attack. Efficiency is of great value.
