About the Product
Develop rock solid basketball fundamentals and a flair for the game with the help of Nancy Lieberman-Cline, a Hall of Famer and General Manager/Head Coach of the WNBA’s Detroit Shock. The detailed descriptions of her Basketball for Women book combined with the action-packed video footage of the Basketball for Women videotapes make the ultimate practice tool for serious players and coaches.
Written by Nancy Lieberman-Cline and Robin Roberts, two women who know the game and how to excel at it, the Basketball for Women book challenges women from high school through college to develop their talent and skill to the highest level. This practical guide provides 111 drills for improving and refining offensive and defensive skills. The authors explain the importance of each skill, identify the keys to proper technique, show how to correct common errors, and apply these skills in game situations.
Basketball for Women: Offensive Skills shows players how to become triple threats on offense—to pass, dribble, or shoot. The tape provides instruction and drills for developing moves without the ball, improving ball-handling skills, sharpening shooting technique, and making better decisions about attacking the basket.
Basketball for Women: Defense & Rebounding will teach players the finer points of shutting down the opponent and banging the boards. The tape provides instruction and drills for pressuring the ball, denying the pass, taking charges, positioning for rebounds, and much, much more.
