FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are the different options for my son/daughter/group/team?                             With the development of TIBBS Basketball, we have added different options to suit the needs of all players.  The base of our program are our individualized skill development workouts.  With these workouts, you can choose between player to coach ratios ranging from 1coach : 1 player / 1 coach : 2 or 3 players / 1 coach : 4 or more players. These workouts focus on the individual skills of shooting, ball-handling, shot creation, etc. Highly specific and individualized instruction are the two prominent factors with these workouts.

Another option we now offer are the competitive academies.  At the academies, we offer players competitive situations to work on their current skill level. We focus on spacing and movement with others in a competitive environment where the majority of drills have offense and defense.  We go through competitive drills ranging from 1 on 1, 2 on 1, 3 on 2, up to 5 on 5.  While their is individual feedback, the benefit of these workouts is the competitive aspect along with the TIBBS instruction.  Many players may have confidence issues in game situations...these workouts provide a practice environment to develop, learn, and improve.

We also offer summer camps that are specific to certain skills.  For the summer of 2010, we will offer point guard/ball-handling, post play/finishing, and shooting/scoring camps.  These are advanced camps for serious players that are ready for intense drills and instruction intended to accelerate their development.  While we are calling them “camps”, they will resemble or workouts more in their intenstity.  We do not waste minutes!!

 

How do I get my son/daughter signed up?                                                                        First, you need to contact us either by phone or email. We will then schedule a time for your son/daughter to come in for his/her first workout. From there, we will have you fill out a registration form, decide on a workout package, and schedule future workouts.

 

Is TIBBS just a summer program or do you operate all year?                                           We are a year round training program. If your son/daughter is interested working out throughout the year, we are available to provide the training. Our schedules will vary depending on the month/season, but our staff will be available all year long.

 

At what age do you start with players?                                                                             We do not have a set age at which players start in our program. We have worked with boys and girls from kindergarten to college to professional players. Our facility is accommodating as we have an adjustable hoop that we can lower to allow for younger players to work on proper shooting fundamentals.

 

What are the dates and times that your program operates?                                           We schedule workouts by appointment that work for both the player and us. One of the benefits of our program is that we accommodate to your schedule. We will do our best to find times that work best for you. Currently, we operate during typical business hours Monday through Friday. Once school starts, we will have times available after school and into the evenings. Again, we will be conducting workouts year round.

 

What are the different options for your individualized and small group packages?       You can sign up for 4, 8, or 12 workouts. Once you purchase the workouts, you can use them until they are gone. There is not an expiration date on the workouts. The only way that you would lose a workout is if you scheduled a workout and did not show up without contacting us. We require a notice of 48 hours in advance unless there is an unforeseen conflict.
