They try to destroy you on the first day, I've seen several young freshman walk off the court during suicides. They just quit. That way the coaches get players that actually want to play, and are somewhat athletic. Unless there's only a few people trying out, then you don't run much because the coaches don't want you to quit.
But mostly, coaches are basically looking to see which kids have some athletic ability, because those ones stand out automatically in the beginning. Just showcase your fundamentals and you'll be fine!What is High School Basketball Conditioning and tryouts like?
My basketball conditioning consisted of . . .
- 2 mile run
- shooting and ball handling drills
- weight lifting
Tryouts lasted about two weeks, with three cuts.
Before the first cut, we ran a bunch of drills just so coach could see what we could do. We had lay up drills, ball handling drills, and rebounding drills. We also did a little shooting.
If we made it past the first cut, then Coach split us into 2 teams, then made us play each other.
After the second cut, he split the players into 2 groups, the group that already made the team, and the group that he wanted to see again. Then he made drills that allowed us to compete with each other. If the person who they were thinking about could keep up with the person that already made the team, it was likely they wouldn't get cut.
Your coach probably won't do the same exact thing. So just do your best and don't forget to have fun.
HOPE IT HELPS. -ehhhm.What is High School Basketball Conditioning and tryouts like?
make sure u can do drills like lay up's and weaves for about 15 mins with out getting tired and be able to do lines....if your fairly in shape your fine not a biggie...they want talent and hustle
