Correct Shooting Form

Stance: Feet shoulder width apart and toes at target

Swing your arm like a Purse: Get ready to catch

Hold the ball like a Tray: Hold the ball as if it's a tray of food, with your elbow underneath your wrist and your wrist cocked back

Extend out of the Chimney: Put your bicep by your ear

Dip the Hand in the Cookie Jar: Hold your follow through "Cookies"

Hand Dribbling Tips

Wide Spider Finger: Keep your fingers spread and use your finger pads at the tips of your finger to guide the ball

Push the Ball to the Floor: Control the ball by pushing the ball to the floor rather than slapping at the ball

Keep your Head Up: When practicing keep your eyes off the ball and scope the area around you. When playing basketball you will need to see when your teammates are open so that you can pass the ball to them
