How We Track Player Development in Just 4 Weeks

Hey Nation!

Here’s the truth. You don’t need months of practice to see if players are improving. In 3on3, the game itself forces growth. More touches, more decisions, more chances to shine (or get exposed).

At Score Hoops 3on3 (my 3on3 basketball program based out of Phoenix, Arizona), we keep things simple. We track development using a 4 week template. Here’s what that looks like:

Week 1: Find the Starting Point

Week one is all about getting a baseline. We’re just watching how players naturally hoop.

• Do they put the ball on the floor confidently?

• Do they see the open pass?

• Can they defend in space?

Nothing fancy here. We just want to know where each player is starting from.
