Recently I had a chance to coach a group of kids in two sessions, two to three weeks apart. When we had some competitive games during the second session, I could see that some had really started to incorporate the new teaching into their shots and others had not. I could see where the shot breaks down after some learning has taken place. Of course it's because old habits are hard to break. And some had done more practice than others. But I thought to comment on what I feel can be done to keep the new learning up front rather than slipping into the background.

An article from Terry Tucker, a coach from Jasper, Indiana wrote to describe the value of my Swish approach and the things I'm teaching/coaching. Terry has described earlier in other venues how he feels about the Swish "Process," as he puts it, and I really liked this new way of putting it.
