Developing Singapore Youth National Teams

Here are 3 things I believe the Singapore basketball association can do to improve youth national teams after re-reading The Spanish Basketball Federation Youth Program (2003)

1. Identify players with potential early
2. Involve club and high school coaches to play a role in the development of the National team’s basketball future
3. Monitor player’s progress throughout the year of competition

Yes! The above takes effort, however, can be started today

How can this be done?

• Assign somebody or a team that knows basketball to watch all major local basketball competitions to identify talent
• Evaluate and re-evaluate players’ identified talent every 3-6 months
• Create a local coaches’ community involved in the development of players above
