DVD
with Bobby Gonzalez,
Seton Hall University Head Coach

Coach Gonzalez's philosophy is anchored in the attitude of improving ball handling, passing, shooting and overall skill level around the clock. His style is to develop players on a daily basis and expect team progress throughout the season. In the pre-season, the advantage of this program is to improve conditioning and mental toughness. The workout session opens with seven spot inside/outside pivoting. Footwork is a very important part of all improvement drills. Five dribble moves are used with the entire team, regardless of position or size. All dribble moves end with a jump stop and made shot. Gonzalez believes his workouts simulate pressure, game conditions and game speed. A good shooting conditioner requires players to shoot nine 3-point shots in 1 minute from half court. In between drills, players always shoot pressure one-and-one free throws. The "penetrate and pitch" drill helps shooters with shot preparation and quick shots. Six in 30 is a full court ball handling and lay up drill that improves concentration and conditioning. Additional drills are the 42 game, 1-on-1 Knock Out and 8 spots. Gonzalez concludes this DVD with his ideas on the joy of coaching and how coaches can maximize their experiences in coaching the game of basketball.
