How to master the triple threat - for youths

As a youth player, you need to stay focused and have a focused practice instead of doing every new drill that appears on IG or TikTok. When playing basketball, you are faced with 4 problems out of the triple threat when trying to drive to the hoop, so you need 4 solutions. 

They can be anything, but realize that you only need four at the Youth level to start. A solution for: 

1. when ball is on your left hip and you need to drive left. 

2. when ball is on your left hip and you need to drive right. 

3. when ball is on your right hip and you need to drive left. 

4. when ball is on your right hip and you need to drive right. 

Again, these can be any moves that work for you, but you should practice how to solve these 4 different problems that arise every game.
