SHOOTING TO HARD

Forum » Player Development / Fundamentals » SHOOTING TO HARD
I have a girl on my team who is quick, get to the rim almost every time she drives, but when she get there she shoots the ball really hard. I need some idea's or drills on how to help her. Thanks
As you go to shoot after attacking the basket for a lay up, you need to get your body under control....otherwise the ball is coming out of your hands as fast as you are attacking the basket.....

I told my players to think about a dozen eggs being in the square on the backboard... lets not break any.

You might try teaching her to come to a jump stop and then go up for the shot... it helps them with body control.
