Basketball skills

To reach my goal of improving my basketball skills, on Friday another  student and I went to the gym to practice our skills.  We did long shooting . We did layups. We practiced are crossovers moves. We practiced how fast we could dribble. We also did mid range shots.

The long shots were practiced beyond the three point line. Shots were taken all around the 3 point line. A shot was taken and than we moved to another passion. We worked our way all around the three point line and back.

The next skill we practiced was layups. First we practiced shooting layups from the right side. Next we practiced layups from the left side. We also practiced layups like we were in a real game.

We worked on are crossover moves after the layups. A crossover move involves faking out a defender by starting one direction to get him off balance and quickly going the other way.

Next we practiced our dribbling. We bounced the basketball as fast as we could. We also practiced bouncing between our legs.

The last thing we did was to take a few med range shots before leaving.
