Also. Be comfortable under pressure. Difference between freshman and varsity is speed and ball pressure. At the varsity level defenders pressure the ball way more. It looks more intimidating but in reality if you get comfortable with handling the pressure it boosts your confidence
im 6'1 200lbs playing for a state team along with my hs. I've been offered scholarships to multiple d1 schools (TA&M, NCS, NBS) what you guys need to understand is coaches see absolutely everything. If you try to hype yourself up in front of coach in hopes of making you song good, dont. what yall need to do it determine if you are playing this sport for fun, or for state plaques (or both). As long as you have your priorates set, you will instantly know if you need to work harder or not. You guys got this, and have the Lord on your shoulder too.
You need to understand how hard it is to make varsity as a freshmen. That doesn’t just take hard work and discipline you need to be extremely extremely talented to make varsity and let alone play as a freshmen. It is possible but you gotta understand it’s much hard then you think coming from a freshmen shooting guard who had the same idea as you
Thanks man, i’m a 5’9 freshman trying to make the basketball team. I’ve been training hard and really dedicated and i’m also glad I saw this video. Keep it up! 🔥
0:22 having confidence puts you ahead of many people in life. To be honest the reason why people don't have confidence is because they don't know what it is and how to get it. Some people percieve confidence diffrently, but confidence is going through with something not caring if you fail or not, but when you do fail you get the information from the failure to be successful in the future.
Making a mistake while lacking confidence will make you worse. Making a mistake while having confidence will make you better, and intimidating. Thats kinda it
thank you for these videos man your page has a lot of content im about to go through and hopefully find some answers. im an upcoming junior trying to make varsity out of new found love for the game, faced w the challenge of never having played basketball in school ever before. your advice about not being down on myself when i inevitably stumble a couple times is really gonna help
Such great advice bro, I was the captain of my u18 team and started playing with my D1 team at 17 and i have been struggling with confidence even though i know i can play amazing with confidence. love the work💯
All these tips are so helpful as before I was nervous about shooting a 3 pointer but with a bit of confidence, I started shooting and made 2/4 threes that game. I ended up with 17 points that game. Just confidence helps boost your points from 8 to the twenties.
Being fast is important and work on your upper body as a freshman, i have gained 20 pounds since the season ended and im going to work on my lower body as a 5’8 pg 122 going into sophomore season on a 2-15 team
I really needed this video, thank you🖤 I didn’t make the freshman team but I play aau and hope to make jv or varsity and I know it’s not out of reach. I’m gonna keep these in mind and continue to work day in and day out. Thank you again💪🏼
Confidence just means certainty, you can be confident that you’re bad just as much as you are good. The way to develop certainty that you are good is to practice and gain experience.
It might be kinda late for me idk but I’m 16 in 11th grade and I’ve loved basketball since 3 but never got on a school team but now I’m trying to get on a school team as a big so hopefully I make it right now I’m just trying to get my confidence and IQ up
Full college and high school basketball games. And nba games because it’s fun lol. But college and high school film will be more applicable to you right now. You can search on UA-cam High school basketball Full game and they’ll pop up.
i had tryouts yesterday and i didnt make the team but the coach already at the team set last summer so he didnt even give the new kids a chance which i think is dumb because i moved here after the summer league, and i was better than over half the kids there
how can I improve myself in basketball but having to deal with anxiety (basically I wanna practice but my anxiety is stopping me from going to a local basketball court to practice during the day)
Im 5,6 going to freshman my height is making it harder for me and that one of the reasons why I got cut from A to b team but Im use this to help me appreciate it
How do I practice at game speed? I play with people everyday at school and go 100% but I don’t have the same skill set as I do from school games to my Friday games

@jimmy1426 look at the stats since 2000. Mugsy was good but he partially made it because then the nba was still developing into the world renowned business it is now and they needed all the attention they could. It can’t happen anymore bro
1. Confidence
2. Watch videos
3. Become fast
Practice at game speed
4. Don't be afraid to shoot

As a 8th grader going into 9th for my second season this really helped a lot and since I’m new to the organized sport I struggle with confidence
I got cut from multiple teams a few years ago and quit basketball since but I still play other sports and this applies to everything

Work really hard for a really long period of time until you are really good and the coaches have no choice but to keep you on the team
How do you watch film? Is it from your games? Is it players your age? Is it nba? What do you look for?

first coach like you
I am a 6’2 Freshman who is trying to make varsity Center
I’m a 5’10 7th grader my first year of basketball was in 6th grade I was 5’6 average 9 now in 7th I average 23 and 18 trying to make d1
Let’s go bro it’s your time💪
i had tryouts yesterday and i didnt make the team but the coach already at the team set last summer so he didnt even give the new kids a chance which i think is dumb because i moved here after the summer league, and i was better than over half the kids there
I’m seventh grader playing highschool and I’m trying to adapt to the pace any tips to do it
Don’t over think or second guess. Let your subconscious take over. The more you practice the slower the game will feel for you
🔥
What division do you play in
I’m gonna be a senior in hs next season I’m not in college yet
@@markkeepsGod1st I mean like high school division like 4a or 5a or something
Good question I don’t even know lol
How did you get your coach to notice you at tryouts?
Check out one of my videos titled “how to impress coaches at tryouts”
How to Impress Coaches at Tryouts!

how can I improve myself in basketball but having to deal with anxiety (basically I wanna practice but my anxiety is stopping me from going to a local basketball court to practice during the day)
Look on my channel and find the video titled, “break out of your shell now (full guide)
What do you mean by varisity being faster?
The players are faster, the pace is faster, and your reactions need to be faster.
Im 5,6 going to freshman my height is making it harder for me and that one of the reasons why I got cut from A to b team but Im use this to help me appreciate it
When I was in 7th grade I was cut from the A to the B as well. And I was probably the same height you are or maybe even shorter. Believe in yourself.
Ima 5’6 pg going into 7th grade how should I use my size and skill against kids cuz I average 36 against 9th graders
If you’re already averaging 36 it seems like you figured it out lol. I guess I’m not sure what you mean my friend.
Im going to tryout for varsity as a 5"10 sophmore. Any tips to try and make it through tryouts?
Just play your game bro. Don’t overthink it
Bro is him
How do I practice at game speed? I play with people everyday at school and go 100% but I don’t have the same skill set as I do from school games to my Friday games
In all your individual training, go all in. Don’t just go through the motions. Pick up the pace
@@markkeepsGod1st Alright
how do I get my stamina and efficiency up?
1. Stamina - run around your neighborhood
2. Efficiency - get a lot of shots up in practice. Volume.
Be the coaches son so you get playing time
Lol
They don’t got film on jv
I asked my parents to film my jv games so I could watch it later. Maybe you could ask your parents
What type of film should you watch
Full college and high school basketball games. And nba games because it’s fun lol. But college and high school film will be more applicable to you right now. You can search on UA-cam High school basketball Full game and they’ll pop up.

Bro u look and sound exactly like reed sheppard
Bro a lot of people have been saying that😂
You should shoot shots to know how much power and accuracy and good form you need to make the shot tho😂
Bro there’s a 4’11 on the frosh basketball team. He’s pretty good too on offence atleast. 5’9 isn’t even short.
I mean for varsity it def is, anything below 6’ is short in basketball
@@terrible2d bro mugsy made it to the nba. Rozier is one of the best point guards rn. Like height does not matter that much in hs
@jimmy1426 look at the stats since 2000. Mugsy was good but he partially made it because then the nba was still developing into the world renowned business it is now and they needed all the attention they could. It can’t happen anymore bro
eagles fan yezzir
be tall
But I don’t have the skill to make it and I’m becoming a sophmore and I didn’t make freshman
Why are you being your own worst enemy my friend? Believe in yourself and put in the work if you truly want to make the team.
