I post a lot of links and write a lot of words about the seedy side of youth basketball. You have shady AAU coaches, shoe representatives, college coaches, and all sorts of other sycophants hanging all over these kids. They teach them all the wrong things about life without managing to teach much in the way of basketball skills.
Well, here’s a coach and a team that do things the right way. I’m sure there are hundreds or thousands of youth coaches around the country just like Peter Singer, the coach of this under-12 youth team. I’d love for my sons to play for a coach like this some day.
