Since the launch of our blogs a couple of months ago, we have received strong feedback from coaches about the quality of our content. Now, we want people to utilize our “comments” feature to keep the conversation going well past the posting of the initial blog.
So, this week, we are having a contest and all that is required from you is to post your thoughts. It’s simple. Read a blog this week and, if you have a reaction to it, post a comment at the end of the blog. You don’t need to register or sign up. Just simply type in a comment pertaining to the blog and you automatically are entered into a contest to win a free copy of the Winning Hoops book “Basketball Basics.”
Only serious, coaching-related comments are going to be entered. So, read our blogs, post a comment and, next week, I’ll randomly pick a person who commented and announce the winner.
The team at Winning Hoops hopes your off-season is going well. Enjoy the “time off” and stay up to speed with the latest basketball happenings by visiting winninghoops.com everyday!
Youe doing great job for coaches commuity.Just keep doing.

As a college wheelchair basketball coach, I want to emphasize that 90% of the information on this site can be used for athletes who play wheelchair basketball as well. I get a lot of good information from this site that I use with my college athletes. One of the number one reasons that people list for not working with athletes with physical disabilities is not knowing how. Well the truth is that the principles are the same. If your school district does not offer a vehicle for students with physical disabilities to participate in basketball then they need to be looking at how they can address these needs!
