I am a High School math teacher and basketball coach. When this past high school season ended, I was anxious to keep basketball season going besides just watching the NBA games. One day on the web I came across this basketball course from SMWW. I was very skeptical at first, but I thought that it may open new doors for me. The results have been fantastic. I enjoy reading the material and commenting on it in our discussions. We have 2 min drills which test our knowledge of the reading; we have a final paper and we comment on one another's work. What I like best are our Sunday "chats" with actual scouts and people in the business. What a great idea this is!! There are people to interface with, and everyone is passionate about the game and very nice. I have found I have a lot to learn, but I do know a lot already, and I feel strongly that I could have an impact on an NBA team as a scout or in the player personnel department. This course is well worth the time! Basketball is my passion.
