“The greatest gap in life is the one between knowing and doing.”
Everyone “knows”
Very few “do”
#Better #Different
We had a great summer at Impact with 215 players attending our camps. It's a privilege to work with so many motivated, committed and hard working athletes. We are thankful for the continued support!
A reminder that Fall Registration is now open.

We've had a great July with 130 players attend our 3 camps. The best part of summer is seeing how much players improve in just 1 week.
Between our on-court training, leadership development, and film study, our summer camps are one of the best places for players to develop.

"The most open you will ever be is when you first catch the ball" - Jay Wright
Good offensive teams never waste a closeout.
Playing off your jump shot puts constant stress on the defense
Keep it simple:
• Space = Shoot it
• No space = Drive it
• Drive stopped = Share it

Player development is not rocket science. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel or over-complicate it. The game is simple, so your training should be too. Rep what happens in games from the spots they occur. Make players be intentional and move w/ purpose.

Are you the EXAMPLE or are you the EXCUSE?
This moment set the entire tone for camp!
@Dame_Lillard gave the people in the gym chills -
His dribbles sounded like a Heavy Weight Fighter punching the bag 💪
This past weekend 10 of our FV Elite players won MVP's & All-Stars at all 4 tiers of the Sr Boys Eastern Valley Championships. Which is over 40% of awards coming from FV Elite!
An amazing accomplishment and speaks to the work ethic and commitment of players in our program.

This is a masterclass of how to handle adversity!
What a life lesson.
To choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances.

Watching college games today -
Big takeaways for perimeter players to improve on:
1) Maintaining posture & balance on drives to the rim
2) Forceful & Consistent footwork on player movement 3s
3) Ball Placement on Rip Drives - shoulder to shoulder or hip to hip.

Don’t Major In the Minors
Minors:
Stepbacks, fadeaways, complicated dribble combos
Majors:
Catch & shoots, finishes through contact, decisions (off ball, on the catch, on the drive, at the rim)
Spend MORE TIME in your workouts on the things that happen MOST OFTEN in games.

Is there a difference between coaching for development and coaching to win?
When talking development., limiting what a player is allowed to do can help them focus on the things they can do but does it take away future possibilities and motivation to improve?
We have exciting news! In 2023 we are expanding our FV Elite Club Team Program. We will be running teams next year for U-14 and U-15 Girls (Current Grade 8-9's). And U-14, U-15, U-16, and U-17 Boys (Current Grade 8-11's).
