This is exactly what I was looking for. The variety of drills to build fundamentals that are presented will let me spend time on those skills without boring the kids to tears.

I especially liked the shooting and passing drills. At this level, kids have all kinds of shooting styles. Building on the one-handed shot right in front of the basket lets them get a feel for how to do it right and then extend out from there. The passing drills are challenging enough to engage all levels of players.

I have ten years experience coaching kids from 8-15 years old, and would recommend this video to every coach at this level.

Although pitched as a "middle school" instrutional video, this is an excellent resource for high school coaches also. I note that in the video he states he uses these drills with his high school team. I can see why as the drills work on balance, passing, pivoting etc. and can be used to improve just about any player. I have coached players from 7-18 years of age and currently coach high school girls. These drills will help improve any player I have ever coached.

Finally, some DVD's specifically for Middle School. This was a big help in breaking down the fundumentals for the age group I coach. It also reinforces me movement towards fundamentals over winning at all costs.

Excellent!! I have already began to use these drills, and the kids are responding. The pivot and pass drills, along with the balance drills really reinforce what I am trying to get accomplished with my girls.

Great videos, the drills are really age appropriate. Definitely recommend.

These are great videos. They really do a good job of going through the key fundamentals that the kids need to improve as players. They are right on the money for middle school kids. I can't wait to get the kids back on the court and run them through some of these drills.

Good content. Enough variety in all of the fundamental drills to give everyone something to work with.

I liked these videos very much. Plenty of content with strong emphasis on the fundamentals but with some creative wrinkles in a numbe of the drills. I really like the passing drills which focus on hand-eye quickness and wrist-arm strength to get kids to make much crsper passes.

Solid basis for good players are taught clearly and with good timing.

Many of the drills can be used or modified for ALL levels of basketball players. These drills will help my players be effective players.

- A well produced DVD product.

The videos were awesome,many of the drills can be used at all levels.The drills in the videos are many of the drills i use in my practices.I would tell all coaches it's a great investment to purchase both videos.I was very impressed.All fundamentals of basketball are covered in the videos.

The videos were extremely informative.I really liked the reinforcing of the fundamentals of all the drills and how it transitions into game situations.It provided great insight and will add some fun to our practices.A great educational tool.

This is a great DVD set. Bob does a great job of showing what to teach this age group as well as why to teach it. I highly recommend it to all middle school coaches and parents.

Loved the videos. Well done Bob and well done to Breakthrough Basketball for distributing them.

Great video set. I have a large library of basketball videos, but this is set is one of the best, offering some awesome drills and some very good fundamental concepts which are key to successful basketball teams. Great job Bob Bigelow, your a terrif instructor!!!!

I am very pleased with the content in these DVD's. The drills and concepts in these DVD's has helped me as a coach and more importantly helped the kids understand the basic fundamentals which will build the foundation for their basketball futures. I coach 7th grade boys who have been playing for up to six or seven years and I can see immediate positive results from the drills and concepts of the DVD's. What it really builds in the boys is confidence and that to me is priceless.

It amazes me how coaches present all these dribbling drills and very little info on how to do them. I enjoyed most of side one. I liked most of his passing drills provided you have enough balls. To me his rebounding phase was weak. No foot movement, no hand and arm position. The offense left a lot to be desired also. Jerry krause puts out one that is much better, in my opinion.

I seriously have problems with this dvd. It is the biggest waste of money I have ever spent. If I did not live in Australia I would have returned it within the first few days. I have never enjoyed a 'talk' video. I much prefer the 'do'. There was no correction of the players when they were obviously performing the fundamentals incorrectly and very little team concepts. I am a huge fan of Jamie Angeli and to be honest this dvd just doesn't rate in my estimation.

VIdeos were very good - alot of useful information. Would like to see offensive sets run against a live defense in the videos for future reference. Had our 1st middle school "B" team game last week after using video information during the weeks of practice leading up to the game, good results.

This video is great for what it's target audience is, middle school players. Basics fundamentals and ball touches. I am relatively new to coaching and I know almost all of these drills. This video gives me a format to better use these fundamentals. I've even let a few of my player watch the video. Youth players aren't perfect or fully developed. Bob's video helped me build a repetitive regimine for my boys and girls to learn from. Well worth the money I spent.

Excellent. Kids at this age need to learn fundamentals and Bob does a terrific job in teaching the basics. The drills are great.
One of the subtleties that we coaches can learn from, is the rapport that Bob develops with the kids. That establishes a teaching / learning environment that facilitates, and accelerates the process substantially. It helps the kids learn better and faster. Good stuff!

Bob - Not only was it a pleasure talking with you, your videos are great. I really like the drills and they are definetly helping our team with thier individual growth and progress.

Thanks once again and looking forward to more videos in the future.

The videos are very good! I've always believed developing fundamental skills will help younger players master any basketball concepts as they continue to play. Bob's videos keep things very simple for coaches to use and kids to understand. The bottom line is that the information in the videos makes sense for kids to be successful in the game of basketball. My 5th grade girls have done very well with the things we have introduced from the videos. I'd recommend them to any youth or middle school coach.

Simply put, great job on the video.
