THE NATIONAL BASKETBALL ACADEMY - TNBAHouston
STRUCTURED SKILLS TRAINING PROGRAM

Each athlete who begins with our Structured Skills Training Program will go through 3 phases of training. Each phase is broken down into 4 weeks. Phase I will consist of Understanding Fundamentals and Technique, Phase II will consist of a combination of Dynamic and Situational drills and Phase III will consist of Mastered Fundamentals applied to in-game situations. Each Athlete will be required to repeat each workout on the days they are not in a TNBA training session. This allows us to progress through each week and complete each phase. At the end of each Phase there will an evaluation to see if the athlete can move onto the next phase.
