Basketball: 30 Days to Tryouts: Sharpen Your Game And Your Mind For The Big Moment Of Basketball Tryouts

If you read my first book, Buy a Game, you know what happened: I finally made the team my senior year, and the rest is history. I walked on in college, got recruited to another college after my freshman season, and played nine years of professional basketball in eight countries.

During this process, in 2006, I began publishing videos to a new site called YouTube. Over the course of more than 7,000 videos, many players asked questions about a shared challenge that has kept myriad players from advancing in basketball: performing at tryouts.

Some of the most common questions:

• How can I best impress the coach at tryouts? • What can I do to stand out? • What position should I play at tryouts? • What if I'm not allowed to play my normal position during tryouts? • How can I get the returning players to respect my game? • What mindset should I have during tryouts? • What can I do to better my skills with only a week’s time before tryouts? • Should I get hyped up before tryouts or remain calm and steady? • I didn't make it this year. Can you tell me exactly what I should do to get ready for tryouts next season? • I feel like my career will be over before it starts if I don't make the team - can you please help me get ready for tryouts?

To address these questions and others on the subject of basketball-team tryouts, I created this workbook.

By completing this workbook, you will:

• Know exactly what will be expected of you at tryouts • Understand your ideal mindset for playing your best and know how to get into this mindset at any time • Be able to relax yourself and defeat any possible nerves or performance anxiety before tryouts • Perform to the best of your ability at tryouts, definitively securing the roster spot you covet
