The Basketball Parent's Journey
Welcome to The Basketball Parent's Journey Podcast, where we capture parent stories about their journey so far and what has worked, and not worked, for them. Listen as parents share their wisdom across a wide spectrum of experiences from beginners to college athletes and their recommendations for you as your player embarks on the next stage of their basketball journey from beginner to high school player and beyond!Hosted by BJ Mumford, Owner and CEO of Playpracticebasketball.com, and author of The Confidence Puzzle: A Parent's Guide To Charting A Course From The Rec League To High School Basketball

Coaching Credibility Week 1 - Practice Design (2025)
In Practice design, we discuss:
- How we approach building skills downstream from decisions,
- How to structure practice to prioritize what happens most frequently
- Why we use live play to start and end practice
- Why we allow players to experience a problem first, before a solution
- How we use constraints to create channels of attention
- Our model for getting 6 things done in 60 minutes of practice
