Chris Oliver is the founder of basketballimmersion.com and The Basketball Podcast with Chris Oliver basketballimmersion.com/podcast.
As an expert in basketball decision training, he coaches, trains and mentors, coaches maximize their players' potential and enjoyment of practices and games.
What he is most passionate about in his work is sharing evidence based coaching ideas that can stimulate your coaching to get better results. The goal is to improve your player retention and transfer of the things you teach to performance. You can learn more about concepts like messy learning, constraints based coaching, maximizing active learning time, adding decision-making to drills, and much more in the numerous blogs he shares at basketballimmersion.com/category/blog/
After coaching for over 20 years, completing his Master’s degree, travelling to globe to watch NCAA, NBA and Pro teams from around the world, Chris saw the need for more education on a games approach to coaching basketball and training methods to support this. He created Basketball Decision Training (BDT), to bridge the gap between skill development and game applications of those skills.
Chris also shares his games approach to coaching, practical evidence based drills and decision training concepts openly through in person, and online learning. All of these concepts have been taught globally through online sharing, camps, clinics, private mentoring and consulting with individual coaching and teams’ staffs. Chris has travelled to Sweden, Australia and New Zealand to spread his ideas. He has also spoken at major coaching clinics in the United States, including the Florida Clinic, Coaching U, the Tasman Clinic, the Rising Coaches Clinic, as well as a number of state coaching association clinics.

Great content! Will be using a ton of your tips in my practices! Thank you!
Great stuff! I am using a lot of this with my teams (youth club and Junior High/Middle School). I have used coach Oliver's concepts in past and will continue to implement and reinforce based on this.
Great content thank you...
@57:21 are you saying that it is "not safe for kids to go to the playground"? You are about evidence. What is the evidence for THAT statement? The notion kids are not safe going to a playground is GREATLY exagerrated statistically and at very least depends on where you live of course. For 98% of folks watching this, including you kids out there, go the the playground, it is safe! Now go play some 1v1!
I agree. Playing at the park when I was a teenager (I'm 52 ) against older kids. younger kids, better skilled, lesser skilled kids taught me life lessons on (among other things) how to resolve conflicts, how to play fair, how (and when) to speak up for yourself, etc....
@@gumbarich EXACTLY! Kids are now sheltered from these opportunities as everything has to be organized, safe and sanitized (i mean in the general not literal sense of that word). Basically, without adults around kids had to figure out conflict managment and coping skills. No wonder we are now on our 2nd generation of adults and young adults that are incapable of coping with life's challenges. They've always had their safe space. Coach Oliver saying "it's not safe to go to park" is not only wrong but downright laughable.
@@tidesmaniandevil the park I go to play in there's druggies, knife crime and frequent muggings. Anyone going to an area like that isn't safe by themselves. I agree with all the sentiments as that is one of the best way to get exposure to a high skill level, but I don't think most parents would agree that's worth a kid losing their phone, money, house keys or coming home hurt. Recent surveys show that on average parents won't let there kids go out unsupervised over the age of 11, without the impact of a crime wave in a particular area. A court or a driveway is the only way that most would see as a safe opportunity.
@@SoloBoredGamer Fair enough, I am not saying every park is safe (certainly not the case) and i am sorry to hear of the issues in your area; however, i still say Coach Oliver just making a blanket statement of park's not being safe is a gross overgeneralization. I dont have the direct numbers, but i strongly suspect that the percentage not allowing kids under 11 in parks does not align with the percentage of parks nationwide that actual have the problems you speak of. Bottom line: use common sense and know your area.
