Basketball Tryouts. It can be extremely nerve wracking for basketball players to not know what to expect the first day of basketball tryouts. In this video, I'm going to breakdown the 3 keys to making the team. These keys take no talent AT ALL and if you use them will help you to separate yourself from the competition.
Thanks for watching!

[@omardedrick2220]

I just made the team yesterday after watching this video. Tips for others 1. Stick to what you can. Don’t try all of that dribbling if you can’t dribble or shoot a lot if you can’t shoot 2. Hustle. During sprints if you’re jogging your chances of making the team go lower. If your sprint as fast as you can your coach is gonna think you have really good hustle skills.

Separate yourself from others 1) Be a person who the coach wants Listen to the coach (eye contact with coach), work hard, push yourself, encourage others, good body language. 2) Pay attention at all times, eye contact nod, ask good questions, give the most effort, box out, rebound, dive for the ball

I made the team in 7th grade and had the best memories, and I remember going into 8th grade nervous because I saw lots of new kids, and I hadn't grown since 7th grade, and then I got cut on the last day with one other person, only reason we got cut was because of our height, I was so mad I lost out on something because of something I couldn't control

[@VisionDrivenBasketball]

@@Sami-le6fp that's too bad man. But now you have a choice. Decide to accept this answer and end here. Or get to work and prove everyone wrong next year. Now that you've gone through tryouts, you should have a good idea of what you need to do to get better. If you take the next year to work on your skills and get stronger, you can get a new answer. It's not over at all man, unless you decide it is. Which is completely fine. But if you don't want to give up now, let me know and I'll help you out.

[@takeover2x35]

how did you do my brotha

[@nick6956]

Tryouts are November 4. It’s so unfair because they already have almost their whole team before tryouts. There’s gonna be like 3 spots available for 60-70 kids

[@VisionDrivenBasketball]

Nick big schools can be tough. Have you been to open gyms and team workouts during the off-season?

[@nick6956]

Vision Driven Basketball I went to open gyms freshman year but now their “open gyms” and workouts are only available to invited people (the ones I said who are already on the team)

[@nick6956]

Vision Driven Basketball I made the team freshman year but JV has a new coach and he doesn’t know me at all. You have to be invited to workouts and such

[@VisionDrivenBasketball]

Nick gotcha that’s tough. It’s definitely an uphill battle. But at the end of the day don’t worry about things that you can’t control. You can’t control who shows up or who gets invited to what or who the new coach is. You can control your attitude, your effort, and your work ethic. So make sure you bring those. If you stay focused on the things you can control you’ll put yourself in the best position possible. Won’t guarantee you make the team, but it’ll put you in the best position possible. Again, it’s all about separating yourself. Most of the kids there are going to be focused on how many other kids are there, how many spots there are, trying to guess what the coach is thinking, etc. Things that they can’t control. And that’ll hurt them ultimately. If you focus on the controllable things, you’ll immediately separate yourself from everyone else.

1. Effort - dive for the lose balls, recover on defense. 2. Hustle - try and win every sprint, even if you're not first, be close. 3. Be vocal - be the coach on the court, encourage your teammates and push them and tell them where they're lacking 4. Listen - when the coach blows the whistle, be the first in the huddle and maintain eye contact, and nod so they know you are listening. Good luck!!!!

@justparbo7351 Looking back on it, not really. I still do think I should have made the team, but the biggest mistake I made was not meeting the coach before tryouts. Everyone that made the team knew the head coach and would show up to every open gym. I'm not upset at not making the team anymore because I feel this is one of the most important lessons I learned from sports. Unfortunately I did quit basketball after that year because I fell in love with snowboarding and I do track and football during spring-fall.

We’ll Im 5’9 and I was told by the varsity coach that I’m too short to play and that “you need height to win games”

[@VisionDrivenBasketball]

King Nu here’s the thing. Are there any other kids below 6 foot on the team? I’m sure there are. So if they are on the team, there must be a reason. End of the day if you were the best ball handler or shooter or defender, he’d overlook the height and you’d be on the team. If you’re only average or slightly above average at those things AND you’re only 5’9”, that’s a problem. So what he’s saying isn’t actually that you’re too short. He’s really just saying that you don’t bring enough skills/athleticism to the table. There are guys below 6 foot who play big time basketball and many who have played in the NBA. Height isn’t a problem if you can overcome it with your skills or athleticism. So you can take his comments and use them to become a better player or you can blame him and not do anything about it.

[@numairylatif7911]

Vision Driven Basketball there are three other guards that’s are shorter than I am and I played my game at tryouts. I’m a playmaking pass-first point guard with scoring ability as well. I’m also a senior in high school which was another reason I didn’t get picked up. I had at least 8 assists during tryouts all great high iq passes which I revolve my game around. I’m working to get better and work on my game and not let those unfair remarks get to me

[@VisionDrivenBasketball]

King Nu good man. You’ve gotta assess what it is that you need to improve and work on those things. Really develop your strengths and find a weakness or two to also improve.

[@RDB0199118]

Your coach lying like shit my varsity team has a 5’3 guy and everyone loves to have him around

KROMZ ASAP good luck man let me know how it goes💪🏽

[@hiii8731]

Vision Driven Basketball i will yeah my shooting is bad but EVRYBODY says I’m good at defense what position should I play

[@VisionDrivenBasketball]

KROMZ ASAP good. Since you know your strengths and weaknesses make sure you play accordingly. Coaches LOVE guys who can play defense. Play really great defense. Work super hard to be the best defender there. Since you know your shot isn’t great, don’t try and shoot if you know you shouldn’t. Play smart and show your best skills. As for position, it doesn’t really matter. Just do what you’re good at and avoid what you aren’t good at during tryouts.

[@hiii8731]

[@Blue_ocean66]

I have been very athletic for my entire life. The freemasons have used every resource possible to prevent me from thriving in sports. I almost made the basketball team my junior year in high school. The coach made me go get a physical. The school nurse said I had an irregular heartbeat and she was not going to approve me to play basketball.

[@itzalvssa3462]
