For players that are unable to commit to a full season of practices and tournaments or for players that we are unable to offer a spot on a team after tryouts, skills-only practices are a great option to help players develop their game. These are age and skill-based workouts in which any player from 2nd-11th grade can participate. There will be 10 practices and each practice will last one hour. Skills will take place at the West Warwick Civic Center on Mondays from 6:00-7:00pm beginning March 23rd. Times will be finalized approximately a week before the first practice. Players will receive a RI Magic t-shirt at the conclusion of the program.

​

At our skills practices, we teach the same 6 concepts each week, utilizing age and skill appropriate drills to teach those concepts. Drills are varied each week. The concepts that are taught every session are:

 

1.     Ball Handling

2.     Footwork/Offensive Moves

3.     Passing

4.     Player to Player defense

5.     Rebounding

6.     Shooting

 

Finally, our skills practices end with 3v3
