How often should a 5th grade boys basketball team practice per week? We play one or two games on the weekends.

If this was me, I would want to practice 2-3 times per week... maybe 1 1/2 hours per practice. This gives you time to work on fundamentals, shooting, your defense and offense. Plan your practices wisely and end practice with something fun so they WANT to come back.

I hope this helps - good luck.

I agree with Coach Sar. Two or three times a week may be plenty for those players. I would keep all of your drills short and keep the players moving. Best of luck.
