  • You can teach a layup using right and left hand in just 5 minutes using these easy steps with two basketballs. We have had much success with kids as young as 7 years old using this method. The reason for moving without the ball is to teach the proper footwork.
    Edited January 2018-We had much success teaching younger developmental players this way. The players that went through these and other developmental drills were very successful in Junior High and High School playing basketball. This young man here is now a sophomore in a larger high school and is a major contributor to the team. He won the state super shooters contest and was state runner up in free throws. He was on the varsity team as a freshman as well. He is one of the best shooters in the area. His fundamentals are sound as well. Everyone has their own method for creating success.
    Edited May 2020-CJ continued to enjoy the success from daily repeated efforts in his fundamentals and shooting. His team won back to back state Championships at his High School. They went 29-0 this year. He was a three year starter for the team. He led the team in assists and shot 48% from the 3 point line. He was part of one of the most successful programs in state history.
    Along those lines...several of the youth participants that came out of this program also went on to play at the state championship level. The girls from this program won over 100 games in four years in high school and were in the state tournament 5 times in 6 years. They were in the championship game twice. Several of these players are now playing college basketball with one player playing on a National Championship team last year. If you want to succeed and play at a high level it takes daily repeated efforts and a strong desire to improve.
    Thanks for viewing! :)

    Clearly all of y’all that are commenting that he is traveling or what proper footwork have never played a sport IN LIFE! This is how you teach BEGINNERS such as elementary school age!! This is a great technique! Good job

    Easier (and less confusing for younger players) to just do the 3 step process:
    1) no ball and run and jump with proper footwork; repeat, repeat, repeat;
    2) add ball, repeat 3x;
    3) add dribble.
    Lay-ups should be the first shot taught. Most team leagues start at age 8.
    3rd grade. If they have the lay-up down going into this level league they will be
    an asset to the the team and gain confidence. If the coach can teach every team member to at least know the proper lay-up mechanics before game 1, the team will be on a good start. More advanced players (at the same age) should be prompted to help less coached players. This is a learned skill.

    Lot of haters on here. You teach the foot work first. Then you add the dribble. I taught jump stop first then 1-2-3 layup with inside foot back method. I taught all my teams similar to this method. The overhand shot is simply easier for young small kids as well. I taught my daughter in second grade the exact same way except we didnt use the two ball technique. Which I may try by the way. Now she's usually one of the better players at layups on her teams. This is for beginners. By time they get older there doing euros and scoop shots. Great video!

    My method is slightly better as I start with the last step of the layup and work backwards with the inside foot back on a 3 step, one dribble lay-up. However I do like your retreat lay-up and will add that to our routine.

    • @_dnma_2966

    • @JStarStar00
      @JStarStar00 6 лет назад

      Well, lots of kids cannot make a layup if they are driving full speed, they ram the ball off the backboard too hard, so in that case you might as well get it blocked anyway. Even if you do not use the Jump Stop, I would use the "Brake Stop" where you slow down on the final step and jump UP toward the backboard rather than blitz full speed past it. If the kid comes from behind and blocks your shot, probably 75% of the time that gets called a foul anyway.

    • @JStarStar00
      @JStarStar00 6 лет назад

      Plus, if you sprint as fast as you can on a layup and miss it, your follow-through probably carries you way way out of bounds so your chances at the rebound are like zero plus most likely the defensive kid gets the rebound and now he is going full speed 5-on-4 the other way, since you are still 20 feet out of bounds.
      In grade school basketball under HS varsity level, probably 1/4 of the shots are rebounding missed layups.
      So even if you do not do the Jump Stop, per se, I much prefer players to slow down, get under control, so if they miss it, they are still only a step or two behind the rim and they have a chance to come back in and get it. And if the defensive kid gets the ball you still have a chance to get back on defense, you are not 20 feet off court at the popcorn stands.

    • @dougconley
      @dougconley 8 лет назад +3

      It's much easier to teach to younger players especially when they are transitioning towards the basket at full speed, Young players are typically not good with their touch off the glass so it's actually good to get them to jump stop to be more in control. I call it a power layup myself.

    • @jakteel6743
      @jakteel6743 9 лет назад +2

      It helps to make sure that they are only using one hand to shoot rather than two. You can also do this drill by placing the unused hand behind your back but younger kids will have a hard time keeping their hand there.

    He is jumping at the end on some layups, he is twisting his body due to two balls in his hands. I won't use it. Sorry but I see so many WANNA BE coaches thnking they know basketball and making these youtubes. STOP! Let the TRAINERS do it. Credibile trainers.

    • @kyakjak
      @kyakjak  6 лет назад +5

      Interesting reply. We developed drills to help our young players develop good fundamentals. I guess our success speaks for itself. This kiddo here has been very successful at the high school level the last two years and our high school teams experienced incredible success the last decade. If we are talking win/loss our girls high school team was 121-6 the last five years. The junior high program had one loss in 10 years. That is where my focus was during this time. The boys have also had incredible success competing in the state tournament as well. I have successfully coached basketball for 37 years and enjoyed helping young people improve their skills. I was also a physical education teacher and our program was a great model for others to create a successful program as well. Yes, there may have been an unorthodox approach but we built our success on repetition and making it fun.

    @sethbaird4726 8 лет назад +1

    you don't go up to the hoop stop and jump. You go up to the hoop and either roll it off your fingers and make it or actually shoot. You don't need to do "feetwork". You tried this with a 5th grader, now try it with a 5 year old. Little kids shouldn't need to "cross over".

  • @JStarStar00
    @JStarStar00 6 лет назад

    I don't get the point of carrying two basketballs; you never do that in a game so your motions are totally unnatural, plus you are not enforcing traveling and carrying the ball so I see bad habits being reinforced here. My own philosophy is to practice shots under game conditions. Practice the proper technique of picking up the ball and releasing the layup.
