The BIG Book of BOBS - Coaching Youth Hoops
This Playbook Could Help You Score 14 More Points Per Game
It was six years ago. My 13u girls’ team was in a tight playoff game. Down by one point with just seconds left.
Baseline out of bounds. This was our chance to score and win it.
I called our bread-and-butter baseline play. We had run it ‘ok’ all season. Confusion led to a turnover, and we lost the game.
I blamed the kids for not making it work. But deep down, I knew the truth – I had failed them as a coach.
That playoff defeat drove me to find a solution. I studied baseline play design, made adjustments for youth players, and refined the tactics in practice.
After months of iteration, I created a baseline playbook that finally worked consistently. It led to easy buckets in games, even with the pressure on.
Fast forward to today. Those plays I perfected have become proven weapons for my teams. We no longer fear dead-ball situations. They are opportunities to score and win games.
So, I packaged up all my learnings into this playbook – 10 simple yet potent baseline plays mastered for youth basketball. With detailed instructions so you can install them seamlessly into your offense.
The result? You’ll gain an arsenal of baseline plays to convert dead balls into points. Your team will execute under pressure. And you’ll never lose a close game again because of a failed baseline possession.
This playbook ensures you have the tools to score when it matters most. Now let me show you what’s inside…
10 Ways To Boost Your Offensive Power
You just learned the secret – baseline plays are prime opportunities to score if executed properly.
Let’s dig into the stats: Analysis of thousands of games shows baseline plays occur 7-10 times per game. More shockingly, these plays score over 70% of the time – with the right play!
Now imagine your youth team scoring at that rate. Turning dead balls into points. An extra 14 per game. Enough to win tight contests.
