Stop If You Feel Like the Game is a Job

Posted on 05. Jan, 2010 by admin in Blog

The game of basketball is suppose to be fun and competitive.   There will be times when it’s not fun to be on the court, but remember its only temporary. For example, line drills aren’t that much fun to most players but they are a great exercise for endurance and quickness.  For 99% of the time you should be having fun when you step on that court.  No matter what age you are, basketball is a great game to play!  If you feel like playing basketball everyday feels more like a job then you have 2 choices:  find a way to make it fun or quit.

There should be no reason why you aren’t having fun out there.  If its not, then it’s going to be a long season or future for you.  When you don’ t let yourself have fun on the court, it shows through your playing.  To the coaches, fans and parents it looks like you would rather be playing NBA2k.  Don’t let yourself get to this point.

If  you feel like playing basketball resembles a job then you should take some time off to re-evaluate.  If you take some time off then maybe there will be a chance that you will miss it and find that fun again.

The game of basketball was meant to be fun and it is!  Don’t take the game too serious or you will take yourself out the game.
