Basketball Manitoba is excited to introduce a new feature to its coach education platform — "Coach Clues". This ongoing series highlights one high-quality, practical basketball drill each week designed to help coaches at all levels enhance their practices. Each drill comes with clear explanations, video demonstrations, and coaching tips to improve player engagement, skill development, and overall team performance. Whether it’s a new twist on a classic shooting drill, a competitive small-sided game, or a fresh approach to teaching defensive rotations, these weekly additions are built to give Manitoba coaches a steady flow of inspiration throughout the season.

This feature is part of Basketball Manitoba’s long-standing commitment to coach development and education. Coach Clues complements an already deep collection of resources on the Manitoba Basketball Coach Education Website — a free, comprehensive hub created for Manitoba-based basketball coaches. The platform is a one-stop destination for everything from youth practice plans and skill videos to full-length clinic recordings and printable team management tools. Whether you’re coaching your first community team or leading a varsity program, there’s something here for every level and coaching philosophy.
