Tips for youth girl to use her size on 5 out offense
Hi all, I'm helping my daughter in her offseason training for 10U basketball. I have no coaching experience, let alone youth coaching experience. my daughter is taller for her age (although not crazy tall), and I'm wondering what I should be working on with her in the offseason?
she is naturally a good rebounded but i feel like she could be even more dominant there. she is very shy on offense, but when she remembers to be aggressive, her size helps her get to the rim. she could work more on her finishing and handles, as with many girls in this age range.
her club team plays 5 out and she plays the 4 or 5. i think this is very hard for her to know where she should be on the floor and what motions to do. i coach her rec team and i let her play the 1 so she can work on her dribbling and confidence with the ball (in rec, everyone has a turn at every position).
Would appreciate any tips on what to work with her on in the offseason, thank you!
