Free Throw Shooting Tips

2 C's and 3 R's
Adapted from Hal Wissell FT shooting video - http://www.coachwissel.com/

Confidence – Believe it’s going in. Think positive thoughts. Look and act like a shooter.
Concentration – eliminate all distractions and focus on target right above front of rim. This last thing you do before you shoot.
Routine – Helps confidence. Find nail hole & set shooting foot to right of hole or right behind it to get lined up Find the valve or seam below valve. Take desired # of dribbles.
Relaxation – Take deep breath
Rhythm – Down up action with the legs. One Motion, use Up force, catch Momentum wave. Shoot on way up with full extension.

Notes: Stay off the FT line until ref hands you ball. Say positive words to yourself with full confidence. Ex. I’m a shooter, nothing but net, count these, I’ve dreamt about making shots like these, this is me, I’m king, etc.
