Elwell Academy

Whenever you’re working on your game you want to master a move or a shooting area before moving to another or expanding your range! Take your time moving too far away from the basket when you can’t make closer shots consistently. Prepare for tryouts by knowing WHO and WHAT YOU are on the court. @christian_giaimo @_matt.cruz_ @drewhanlen @puresweat @djsackmann @drkenosha @vgi_consulting @irv_roland @thenbpa @d_gstone @cjeanius @theoldmanandthethree @jjredick @nikebasketball @adidasbasketball @currybrand @stephencurry30 @steverossiter_ 🏀 #InspireHoops • Follow @InspireHoops_ for more!🔥 • #Basketball #Sports #Training #BasketballTraining #Drills #StatenIsland #NewYork #Shooting #Dribbling #Footwork #Mentality #HardWork #Gym #Workout #Skills #Offense #Defense #Breakdown #Handles #Challenge #Motivation #BallIsLife

My life with basketball started in the 2nd grade at St Clare’s and it hasn’t stopped since. Jameson started playing in his room and every year he kept having fun and smiling so 4 years old he went to his first camp with @cortsidenyc and he continued to smile and have fun! Enjoy this little “highlight” tape of his first 4 years! Lol

Catch the @statenislanddiamonds 2026 team out in Albany @therealgymratchallenge playing out of Pool C!!!! We have been playing great this spring and looking to continue our development!

Summer. Basketball. People forgot so I’ll be back…. S/o to @the_ghost28 for always letting me rock with the fam #unitedfam in @utlbasketball and beyond. Been blessed to play with some of the best players in the history of Staten Island and this video is just a small sample of the fun we had. Also shoutout to @theeskrappadon because I was looking for a song to play for the video and decided to go with his voice, when he is giving you nicknames and talking about you- you know you are playing at a high level.

Last night with Steph @stephencurry30 breaking the career record for made 3’s, we decided to shoot as well! @mikebss on his last spot going 10-11 from 3 is poetry in motion. Always love working with guys like Mike because they push themselves to be better and hold themselves to a higher standard! @jj_the_legend7 @jjredick @curtishsbasketball @seemikedunn @theshootingguy @lethalshooter @uabasketball @currybrand @thenbpa @vgi_consulting @drkenosha @puresweat @drewhanlen 🏀 #InspireHoops • Follow @InspireHoops_ for more!🔥 • #Basketball #Sports #Training #BasketballTraining #Drills #StatenIsland #NewYork #Shooting #Dribbling #Footwork #Mentality #HardWork #Gym #Workout #Skills #Offense #Defense #Breakdown #Handles #Challenge #Motivation #BallIsLife

🚨🚨🚨NEW BREAKDOWN 🚨🚨🚨 This breakdown involves one of the best players and prospects in the world @paolo5 during his phenomenal performance against the Gonzaga Bulldogs last week. For a player of his age, his footwork at his size is what makes him a potential number 1 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft. He made a great combo move going between the legs and then behind the back getting the defense to back off of him and then remain balanced enough to knock down a 17 foot jump shot. Here is the footwork and breakdown of the move. Shoutout to @stoolbenchmob the #1 college basketball podcast that I listen to weekly! Have another player you want to see as a breakdown drop it in the comments below!!! ⬇️ ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ @jjredick @seemikedunn @theshootingguy @puresweat @drewhanlen @barstoolsports @christian_giaimo @_matt.cruz_ @youngtaccc @jbvisualss @vgi_consulting @drkenosha @nikebasketball @stephencurry30 @currybrand @dukembb 🏀 #InspireHoops • Follow @InspireHoops_ for more!🔥 • #Basketball #Sports #Training #BasketballTraining #Drills #StatenIsland #NewYork #Shooting #Dribbling #Footwork #Mentality #HardWork #Gym #Workout #Skills #Offense #Defense #Breakdown #Handles #Challenge #Motivation #BallIsLife

@gianna__lorenzo started coming to me a little over two years ago and was a good shooter that was able to reach from around the foul line area (as a 5th grader). We spent the last few years perfecting her form and not rushing moving back past the 3 pt line to keep her form consistent. This is her as a 7th grader playing high level aau for @team_sharp_basketball and getting ready to take on high school in the near future. So excited to watch her grow and develop over the last couple of years. She has a bright future ahead of her and pumped to be a part of it. Thanks for always putting the work in! @jjredick @seemikedunn @theshootingguy @drewhanlen @puresweat @team_sharp_basketball @gvj0910 @nikebasketball @wnba @paigebueckers @sabrina_i @dianataurasi @sbird10 @darknightdyna @thenbpa @d_gstone @cjeanius 🏀 #InspireHoops • Follow @InspireHoops_ for more!🔥 • #Basketball #Sports #Training #BasketballTraining #Drills #StatenIsland #NewYork #Shooting #Dribbling #Footwork #Mentality #HardWork #Gym #Workout #Skills #Offense #Defense #Breakdown #Handles #Challenge #Motivation #BallIsLife

This young lady came to us with aspirations of learning how to play basketball properly and make more shots. After ONE WEEK of working with us on her shot this is the transformation. The improvement you can have in your game is endless when you become a student of the game, ask questions, and listen to those who can help. I could not believe how quickly she picked it up but there is no stopping her now. We don’t need to have fancy advertising or workouts with 30-40 kids in them, we strive to provide RESULTS. Results at all levels. Contact us if you NEED RESULTS! @seemikedunn @theshootingguy @jjredick @thenbpa @drewhanlen @puresweat @slam_hs @slam @_matt.cruz_ @christian_giaimo @princebansii @nikebasketball @vgi_consulting @drkenosha @iam1cent 🏀 #InspireHoops • Follow @InspireHoops_ for more!🔥 • #Basketball #Sports #Training #BasketballTraining #Drills #StatenIsland #NewYork #Shooting #Dribbling #Footwork #Mentality #HardWork #Gym #Workout #Skills #Offense #Defense #Breakdown #Handles #Challenge #Motivation #BallIsLife

🚨🚨Drill Alert 🚨🚨 This drill is great to implement shooting footwork into a game situation. The fifth drill is now introducing a behind the back move. When making the behind the back move we first have to make sure we are planting our outside foot and pushing off of that leg. The opposite leg is starting to get us going in the direction we want to make our move towards. The next steps should be you getting into your shot and exploding left right and right left. Stayed tuned for the next video where we will start increasing the difficulty in the moves! 🏀 #InspireHoops • Follow @inspirehoops_ for more!🔥 • #Basketball #Sports #Training #BasketballTraining #Drills #StatenIsland #NewYork #Shooting #Dribbling #Footwork #Mentality #HardWork #Gym #Workout #Skills #Offense #Defense #Breakdown #Handles #Challenge #Motivation #BallIsLife #puresweat @puresweat @drewhanlen @jjredick Shirt: @theoffice @vgi_consulting @drkenosha Sneakers: @stephencurry30 @currybrand @uabasketball @slam @slam_hs @officialeastbay @thenbpa @cjeanius @d_gstone @noonanhoops @theshootingguy @seemikedunn

We always try to make our training as situational as possible. Here we have @brianavancleaff who is starting this year at a new school playing for @unewhavenwbb who is a step out 4 post player working alongside sharp shooter @ashley_marrocco who is starting her second year at @pacewbb …. In these drills we are breaking down which each player needs to work on individually in a controlled group setting. Briana is working on being the trail on a secondary break by reversing the ball to Ashley who is playing the wing. In the video they are both doing all game like scenarios that their teams run and also are fundamental basketball plays.

Yesterday our Advanced Academy (HS) worked on getting into our footwork to shoot off the dribble and we focused on KD’s load step into the shot. @patrick.evans16 is getting after it with two moves we worked on (double between the legs and double behind the back). Anyone with any questions about the move or how to perfect it DM me!!! 🏀 #ElwellAcademy • Follow @Elwell_Academy for more!🔥 • #Basketball #Sports #Training #BasketballTraining #Drills #StatenIsland #NewYork #Shooting #Dribbling #Footwork #Mentality #HardWork #Gym #Workout #Skills #Offense #Defense #Breakdown #Handles #Challenge #Motivation #BallIsLife #Inspire #Hoops

Spent last night working with the College Plus group on jab series into options in the midrange. Always great to have great players in the gym and last night @o__doggg 2017 graduate from Division 1 program @njithoops came down and put in some work. The first move is a jab series and then he rips to the middle (strong hand for Osa). On the pull up notice the balance and foundation of his legs to stop on a dime behind the back and re-set his feet in order to remain balanced. On the second move it’s the same jab series and then going middle (again his strong hand) where he then does a “drag dribble” which is a between the legs going backwards where he then stops on a dime, remains balanced and knocks down the shot. The angles are to show you his footwork and how precise you have to be in order to remain balanced and keep a great foundation! @scaryisland1v1 @daholy1 🏀 #ElwellAcademy • Follow @Elwell_Academy for more!🔥 • #Basketball #Sports #Training #BasketballTraining #Drills #StatenIsland #NewYork #Shooting #Dribbling #Footwork #Mentality #HardWork #Gym #Workout #Skills #Offense #Defense #Breakdown #Handles #Challenge #Motivation #BallIsLife #inspire #hoops
