Who Else Wants to Know the Secrets of Scoring Points in the Paint?


Let’s face it………

1. You stand out as a basketball player based on what you do in the painted area.
2. You set yourself apart from average players by what you do in the paint.

Goal_sepia_cropped You probably know that the basket is 10 feet from the floor and the painted area is 12 feet by 12 feet. The game is played in the paint. It is the heart of the ‘game within a game.’

You will become amazed at the simple actions that are required to develop a dynamic inside game.

Can you imagine both the joy and opportunities you can create by being able to score in the paint? Picture yourself next season catching in the low post and executing a calculated, explosive move that ends with a made basket followed by the ‘and-one.’

Can you recall the last time you watched a team score, draw the foul and make the free throw?

The TGM Shooting School Approach


Our basketball training classes focus entirely on offensive skill development work. We believe that shooting and the ability to play offensive are the highest cognitive skills in basketball.

Our unique teaching approach combines video and fun, innovative teaching and positive teaching methods to move players from understanding to execution. Our progressions are creatively taught in one-on-one, two-on-two and three-on-three situations.

The focus is on mastery-- game shots at game spots at game speed.

The pursuit of excellence requires time and sacrifice. Our work has produced players who are skilled and disciplined -- fully able and prepared to compete at their level and a real asset to their team.
