So basketball is on hiatus for at least the next month in WA. What are we all going to do? Well Maddie Allen from our WSBL team has us covered with basketball exercises. Head here to let her know what equipment you have access to at home and what you want to work on, and she’ll do some videos for you.
Meanwhile, when the WABL and Domestic seasons start back, they’ll be starting back in a hurry. If you want to keep fit at home while you can’t get on the court, Sean Connolly (Coach Connolly) is here for you. You can head here to download his 30-day Quarantine Program for free. (The Free App contains videos and images of each exercise if you’re not sure what they are so it’s worth downloading.)
Alternatively, you can view week one of the program below. Thank you Sean!
