2018 Florida Basketball Coaches Clinic Notes

The Florida Coaches Clinic takes place every year and is organized by Larry Shyatt. It is hosted at the University of Florida and brings together NBA, NCAA and other coaches to share basketball ideas. These notes were taken and prepared by Mike Robuck and the University of Florida Staff.

This year I was grateful to be asked to speak once again. I got an opportunity to share ideas that built on last year’s clinic Florida Coaches Clinic presentation. I explained further about how we train, practice and use BDT to build better decision-making opportunities into practice.

If you read my notes and are curious to learn more please check out the Basketball Decision Training video training I created here: Learn How to Use Basketball Decision Training
