The #1 Way to Help Your Player Succeed 🎯
Dodging. Accuracy. Confidence. Let’s Build Them All — Starting with the Shot.

Hey Prime Family,
Out of hundreds of players and conversations with parents, these are the top 3 most requested skills I hear over and over again:
Dodging & Footwork – How to create space and beat defenders
Shooting Accuracy – How to hit the corners consistently
Confidence – The ability to play fast and fearless, even under pressure
This week, I want to focus on the second one — shooting accuracy — because it’s one of the fastest ways to separate your player from the competition.
🎯 Why Shooting Accuracy Changes Everything
Power matters. But accuracy wins games.
And one of the biggest upgrades a player can make isn’t just strength — it’s mastering different release points.
TYPES OF SHOTS
Overhand
Âľ
Side Arm
Low to High
BTB (Behind the Back)
Around the World
Shovel
One handed
Twister
Twizzler
Nose breaker
Different angles = more deception = more goals.
The truth is: shots don’t need to be complicated — they need to be repeatable, accurate, and deceptive. And we can help build those habits.
🧠Parents: Here’s How You Can Set Them Up to Win
If you're a parent looking to support your player’s growth… helping them become a dangerous shooter is one of the best investments you can make.
Why?
Shooting reps can be done alone or in small spaces
It’s measurable (you can see the improvement)
And when players start scoring more, their confidence skyrockets
Whether they’re trying to make the A team, stand out in tryouts, or simply love the game — helping them build elite-level shooting is one of the best ways you can support their journey.
