Make them run. In my 8th grade season, we started the season 0-3 cause we were not focused. After our 3rd loss in practice, our coach had us come in 3 hours before school started and had us run suicides for the whole 3 hours. He told anyone that didnt do all the suicides could just leave the gym and they would be off the team. 3 of our guys ended up leaving. We ended up running around 150 suicides. After that though we won 15 straight and won the championship.

Bring in some team rivalry before a game against another school, let the kids bring in their own music to practices, and give them praise when they do something right. Try also connecting w/ them by using some of their "language." Don't tell them "You're becoming a great player," tell them "You're going to beat the other team up with those moves!" or something like that. =) They'll feel more open that way, and loosen up a bit. Then they'll truly be able to enjoy the game and get fired up.

Make definite you'll be able to dribble good with each palms and the secret's being capable to do it together with your head up. If you've got a basketball run up and down your road dribbling a basketball concentrating on some thing in entrance of you and dont appear down. Try and be trained to make use of your left for a lay up. It will upgrade your recreation plenty. Start and not using a ball and simply train going for walks on the hoop and get used to leaping off your correct foot and rolling your left arm up closer to the ring. Then snatch a ball and dont fear approximately making it in the beginning simply paintings on kind. Lastly simply move out and train up to you'll be able to purpose the extra you train and play the greater you're going to get. But move available in the market and play rough and be agressive and im definite you're going to do high-quality. Good good fortune to ya

Girls!
As weird and lame as that sounds typically having females around at the age tend to make guys compete harder. Try getting the cheerleaders to practice in the gym or somewhere in view while your guys practice

Hang-out with them more so they can believe in you. Then give them some sort of inspirational speech.
