10 Best Basketball Drills for 12 Year Olds | Fun Basketball Drills by MOJO

Whether it's youth basketball shooting drills, passing drills, or dribbling drills, it's all about them not even realizing how much they're learning about ball handling skills, shooting form, or even the triple threat position. The trick for coaches is to leverage what kids already know and build on their knowledge with simple coaching tips.

[@yougotmojo]

Hey Janice! While we didn't film every drill in our library (100+ drills!) with every age group, we use experts from the NBA to determine what age groups a drill is applicable for. At the end of the day -- you know your team best so if some of these are too advanced that's OK! There are more drills for free in the MOJO app that you can try, too.
Also -- in the MOJO app for each drill we provide details on what is likely to go right and wrong with different age groups doing each drill, as well as how to make it easier. The app is free to use with your team: get.mojo.sport/youtube
