Boys just seem to have all the fun and access to top camps learning new skills and drills. Don’t worry girls—I plan to change all that..

This video has some really great drills to help you with ball handling and some great post moves. I can’t wait to get back in the gym.

Rob Weatherly of Velocity Sports Performance did an excellent job showing the young ladies the different ways to warm up and stretch, drills to increase agility and quickness and how it applies to basketball. And you know I could not let the young ladies come to a girls basketball camp and not go over basketball skills. I had the young ladies go through stations of shooting, dribbling, passing and free throw shooting.

Check out the highlights.

Mark Lewis is the national recruiting coordinator for ESPN HoopGurlz. Twice ranked as one of the top 25 assistant coaches in the game by the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association, he has more than 20 years of college coaching experience at Memphis State, Cincinnati, Arizona State, Western Kentucky and, most recently, Washington State.

If someone with over 20 years of college coaching experience is offering advice, I would definitely listen.

Mark Lewis makes some great points in his latest article on Hoopgurlz:

• It seems today that the willingness to spend time in the gym or studying and following the game is taking a back burner to simply playing games.
• What do you hear college recruiters claim is missing? Focused skill workouts in addition to the games and practices of both high school and club teams.
• Although shooting workouts are imperative, so are ball handling skills, footwork, passing and cutting and a host of other parts of the game that aren’t just going to appear come game time.
• When you are shooting, be sure your goal is shots made and not shots taken. It doesn’t matter if you got in 500 shots before school if you only made 75.
• Good coaches will tell you that skill development is about repetition.
• TV coverage of both the college and WNBA game continues to grow, along with internet coverage, offering more opportunities to learn basketball from some of the best in a flat-screen classroom.
• It’s great to know that Maya Moore is a great player or that Brittney Griner is changing the game. But beyond that know what exactly it is that sets Moore apart from the rest or why Griner made such incredible strides in her game since the start of her freshman season.

If a player desires to play at the collegiate level, I would recommend that she watches womens college basketball games. Make sure to have a pen and paper available to write down how many times you see a player throw a behind the back pass or a pass between the legs or an AND 1 move.

You will very rarely see a college player do something fancy or flashy. As a matter of fact, I played collegiate basketball with a player that loved to be flashy, especially throwing no look passes. No one on the team ever saw them coming and it lead to turnovers. And Coach demanded that she stopped.

So should you work on flashy moves? Absolutely not. Keep it simple and work on the basics.

Here is a great example for youth just learning how to set a screen. It demonstrates the point guard setting a screen.

Here is a more advanced example of a down screen and a back screen. The person in the video setting the screen moves slightly which can be called a moving screen. So be careful while setting screens and do not move.
