Welcome to OLD SKOOL UNITED
Welcome to OLD SKOOL UNITED! Your one stop site for area hoops. Here at O.S. United Basketball, we are dedicated to improving your game. We offer Boys and Girls AAU teams in the spring and summer, individual/small group training, and summer basketball camps.
Our program is designed to improve basketball IQ. There are lots of players at young ages who will succeed solely upon their athletic gifts or height. But what happens when other players catch up? The answer is, their successes will decrease drastically. So we stress the use of moves, spacing, and footwork. We break down perimeter and post moves every practice and training session. We use video of top players to illustrate our points. Seeing is believing! For instance, we can coach ball fakes and tell every player how well they can work, but if we coach them and show them a highlight of Kobe using a ball fake right before he throws one down, every player is much more likely to use a ball fake. Every player needs to see there is a value to each and every thing we teach, and when you see a pro use a move we just taught, that value is validated.
On the defensive side of the ball, we teach a man to man team defense which stresses ball pressure. If you can play defense well, you are always an asset to any team; Your shots might not always fall, but your defense should be a constant.
