What's the difference from DISCOVER?
EXPLORE moves faster and focuses on decision-making in game situations, not just fundamental skills. We assume players already know the basics and are ready for game-speed training.
What if they're not on a team yet?
That's fine. This program prepares them for team basketball and helps them understand game situations they'll face.
