Coach Gels put together this website that features tips, drills, plays, mental aspects, links, and attitudes toward the game. Coach Gels' real job is as a physician in a small northern Michigan town, Charlevoix, where he has practiced Internal Medicine since 1975. He has played the game every year from Junior High until he was about 40 on amateur men's teams. You know what happens to old player's with kids. They become coaches.

Every basketball coach's library should have these DVD videos on their shelves. Coach Rick Torbett is a master of this craft. His work is the best I have ever seen and I recommend basketball training and basketball coaching instruction from Better Basketball.

Hoop Skills -

- This is a well designed site, but offers little free basketball coaching material. It is strictly commercial; however, you may find something you want to buy.
