Why 3on3 Basketball is Key to Player Growth with Special Guest Coach Mark Kurtz
Coach Mark Kurtz, a long-time high school girls basketball coach, shares his passion for 3-on-3 basketball and its benefits. He believes that 3-on-3 basketball is a great way to teach the game conceptually and develop important skills such as ball-handling, passing, screening, and cutting. He emphasizes the importance of teaching concepts rather than just individual skills. Coach Kurtz also discusses the role of 3-on-3 basketball in building team chemistry and personal growth, including perseverance, toughness, and being part of something bigger than oneself.
