HoopKidz/HoopElite Basketball Tip Of The Month- Young Players should always go through a Stretching routine before playing basketball. There is a new school of thought with many trainers that you can precede stretching with cardiovascular exercise or even skip the process. We don't prescribe to those theories. While we sometimes start workouts with Jumping Rope, the Stretching regimen is very important particularly with Basketball. Many of our kids are coming off Fall sports- Football, Soccer, Lacrosse, and Fall Baseball. The play of Basketball involves the use of a whole different set of muscles. In addition to play on a completely different kind of surface-Wood vs. Grass/Turf. Make sure you spend a least 10 minutes stretching and warming up before the ball bounces!
