Youth Basketball: Life Lessons to Teach Your Team 21. The best team works together as a unit on offense and defense. Its not all about scoring and rebounding every player finds a way to contribute.22. When you are working with a group, theres usually going to be some people you get along with better than others. Maybe because of similar backgrounds or interests, players will make immediate connections with some and not with others. Basketball teams provide players opportunities to work together, even with those they may not necessarily like (at least at first).23. Recently a basketball expert said that when a player has the basketball, hes frequently making about 10 to 15 decisions in his head every 20 seconds. For example, should I pass, dribble or shoot? If I pass, who to? What kind of pass? How hard? Should I fake first? What should I do if I pass? The game of basketball forces players to make decisions. Some players learn from what the coaches say, and for others, it takes actual experience.24. How do you get ready for your opponents? Do you prepare a written plan, put in extra effort, and make the most of your practice time? If a coach makes the connection, is it easy for players to see that preparing for a tough, cross-town rival in basketball is similar to preparing for a tough math test. Both take a plan, extra effort, and commitment.25. Most coaches will have at least a general set of rules for how the team should conduct their play on the court. These rules, along with the rules for the game of basketball, constitute a system for the players. Through the course of the season, players learn how to adjust their style of play to the system.A. Making good decisions.B. The power made magic of teamwork everyone makes a difference.C. Preparing for and meeting challenges.D. Getting along within a group.E. Working within a system requires adjustments.Section BDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.
