5 Workouts you can do from Home to Improve your Game
There are many ways an athlete can improve their game on the court, whether that is their ball handling skills, their foot work, or working on their shot.

“That's [my] favorite part of my job, just going on the court [and] actually getting to talk to the kids. I know all their names, and then I get on the court and actually get to know more about them, so that's nice. And you know, I get to help him out with basketball too,” Ballout said.
Add Visualization to your Game Preparation for Success on the Court
Adding visualization to an athlete’s workout plan is beneficial because it increases concentration on the game, reduces pressure leading up to the game and enhances an athlete's ability to perform certain skills in different scenarios. When an athlete visualizes their success, it promotes confidence within themselves and leads to future success in the task they are trying to accomplish.
