Titan Institute of Basketball
Building up athletes from the inside out

TITAN-  (1) A person of exceptional importance and reputation; (2)One of prodigious size, strength, achievement, power, and influence. 
 

Titan Institute of Basketball is an all inclusive place to encounter all aspects of basketball. Our continuum of influence consists of five to six year old leagues with skills and drills, all the way to counseling parents on college recruiting. Some of the things that TIB will encompass:

· Competitive and recreational youth leagues - bitty ball to high school

· Adult basketball leagues - men's and women's

· Social Skills/Academic tutoring services

· Weekly skills and drills clinics

 

Player Development- Fundamentals in any sport are essential to an athletes' overall performance. Supplying those skills at an early age should be the basis of any youth sports program. Getting involved early is not only for muscle memory and coordination, but for gaining individual and group setting experience. The Titan Institute of Basketball is dedicated to the fostering of this with experienced coaches and top notch training.

Athletic Performance and Mental Agility- Our philosophy is that athletic performance is only part of the picture in developing the whole athlete. Mental toughness and intensity are things the Titan Institute of Basketball (TIB) will stress in the training and development of all players. Through a series of timed drills that require extreme concentration and physical effort, athletes are given an opportunity to practice pushing themselves physically and mentally simultaneously. These types of drills not only help on the court but the intent is to carry over these principles in everyday life. This will establish positive responses when dealing physically and mentally with potentially challenging stressors. If given the opportunity to practice these types of scenarios in a sports environment it becomes just like anything else we practice, we will become adept at it.

Titans Basketball is an organization that combines the best of both worlds. With expert basketball training and the Mental Tough Drill Series ©, TIB is a program that is geared toward athletes of all ages and skill levels.  

Academics- TIB allows families to access academic tutoring at the same facility as the basketball training. Licensed educators will be on hand to provide individual training in all subjects and at all levels. We are dedicated to academic excellency. We will meet every child at their individual level and provide them with the tools to function at the highest level that they are able. We believe that every child can be an academic success story.  


Titan Character Building- TIB believes in building the athlete from the inside out. John Wooden quoted: "Ability can take you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there." In other words the value of character outweighs the importance of physical ability. TIB will provide social skills forums and allow speakers to come in and educate the kids on various subjects. All the topics will be used to steer our children in the right direction in all aspects of life and basketball. Some topics of interest: dealing with adversity, handling peer pressure, academic excellence coupled with athletics, sportsmanship, effective communication, and leadership. We want to help kids see the big picture and realize that being successful at athletics combined with good character can help take their lives to a whole new level of success.

Community Building- TIB strongly believes in activities that will facilitate community building. We are committed to see our community grow and thrive. There must be positive activities that are readily available to our area. In addition to our youth activities, there will be opportunities for parents to become involved in both men and women's leagues, as well as parent education classes. Everything that we do will be based on creating positive connections in our community between both children and parents. Some of the areas that we will focus on are:

· An awareness of themselves and others

· Respect for others

· Social responsibility

· Social interaction skills

· Perspective taking

· To recognize and appreciate diversity

· To communicate clearly & directly

Our vision is to invest in the future of our children and community, by expanding the love of basketball, to create well-rounded children and families that are influential both on and off the court.












We want to instill in our athletes that being the best player they can be is very important, but being the best person on and off the court is more rewarding in the long run.
