So a couple weeks ago I was working with a group a kids and we were working on their free throw shooting. One thing I noticed was the group of kids I was responsible for was rather large and in an attempt to be more efficient, I decided to split the kids into groups to go work on their free throws in separate groups. This ended up making things a little more difficult as the kids, who are just learning basketball, were not hitting many of their free throws and had to chase their basketballs all over the place in addition to chasing ones they did make and ended up taking a weird bounce, which is frustrating in itself.
So to the point, when I was younger and shot hoops out in the driveway I remember having the same exact problem these kids were dealing with and kids at their own homes were dealing with as well. I would end up chasing the ball all over the place, out in the street or into the backyard, and wow was it a hassle. I ended up asking a parent or friend to rebound for me which was a hassle as well. One year for christmas I ended up getting something for my basketball hoop to assist me with rebounding and boy was it helpful.
That's is why I decided that I would recommend to my readers the SKLZ Shoot Around. It isn't the same one I used as a child but it is the same concept and a little more updated. It attaches to the hoop and after a shot is made it funnels the ball back out to the shooter so they can continue shooting with much less hassle. They are fairly cheap products and can be bought for anywhere between $10-$20, depending on brand and model you choose. If it is something you are interested in just click here.
