The preparation for the next basketball season starts TODAY! GREAT TEAMS are made in the fall and winter, but GREAT PLAYERS are made in the spring and summer!
The Christian County YMCA wants to challenge you to shoot at least 10,000 shots this summer in preparation for your next basketball tournament or season. Use the attached spreadsheet to record all of your shots. NOTE: Shots do NOT have to be completed at the YMCA. In order to become a member of the CCYMCA Shot Club you must
- Shoot between 10,000 – 40,000 shots in June – August
- Record the number of shots attempted on each day.
- No more than 50% of your shots can be taken in a single month
- For example, if you shoot 10,000 shots this summer, no more than 5,000 can be shot in a single month. This is done to develop consistency.
We have a Standard Level (10,000 shots), a Silver Level (20,000 shots) & a Gold Level (40,000 shots). Everybody that completes a level will receive a YMCA Shot Club T-shirt personalized with their name on the back. The silver and gold levels will receive special patches on their shirts to acknowledge the extra work put in.
There is also an extra column to track free throws. Basketball coaches want every basketball player to increase their free throw shooting % because of the huge impact it has on games! Please try to complete about 10% of the overall shots from the free throw line. This doesn’t have to be tracked perfectly – we just want to see some focus on free throws.
Tracking sheets available at the YMCA, please show proof of online registration.
