As a school administrator or district procurement professional, you do what you can with what you have.

That includes budget and space limitations. Youth development embraces technology, but it also includes getting them away from electronics and offline. Helping kids maintain better health through movement – physical activity – is tough in some school districts.

How 360 Hoops Changed Basketball Training

Shane Brey made it easier with 360 Hoops. Basketball training and competitive – or non-competitive – physical activity using 360 Hoops is possible for limited spaces and all ages. As a coach, Shane’s inspiration and motivation were to engage kids in physical improvement as well as basketball training.

His “three pillars” for 360 Hoops delivery were:

1. Development

2. Versatility

3. Competition

Three Times Better for Basketball Games

The innovation is simply three backboards; three baskets arranged on a single pole. The unit can be placed anywhere you need the versatility of movement or multiple engagements for groups of kids.

This is basketball training like never before, and the possibilities for individual and team sports are limitless.

Coaches, Physical Education Instructors Can Now Maximize Budgets and Space

Physical education (PE) departments at every level of education are challenged. Too many kids, not enough equipment; small budgets and time constraints are just a few of the problems coaches and PE teachers face every day. Proper equipment is necessary for student safety, but keeping them focused and increasing their enjoyment is also important.

The moveable 360 Hoops system can be used inside, outdoors, in small spaces, and for larger groups of students. You get 3 baskets instead of one. You can divide your groups according to skill levels and proficiencies so every player succeeds. Perhaps you need to rotate activities; you can designate 3 “stations” for basketball training.

Finally, Everyone Gets a Shot

360 Hoops can increase the pace of an already fast-paced game, and kids like that. Coaches often worry about overlooking less aggressive kids or students not getting a turn at drills.

“In 360 Hoops, you’re constantly moving around, and you’re excited!” said one student. “You don’t have to wait in line all the time.” Some of the basketball training drills can keep as many as 35 students busy on a single hoop.

Youth character development should promote encouragement; lifting each other out of failure and deter bullying. When students participate in basketball training drills that are equal, no one student is “better” than another.

360 Hoops can be the mechanism coaches and PE professionals use to develop character among students and players.
