TESTING AND EVALUATION PERIOD!!

Our annual testing and evaluation period will be 15May through 15Jun 2011 for ALL athletes participating in the 100% Hoops Training Program for this Summer. We strongly encourage ALL athletes to schedule to get Nike Sparq tested, mental assessment (optional) and functional movement screen based on dates that will be posted on our web site (www.100percenthoops.com)

Nike SPARQ 3.0:
The tests include: Half Court Sprint, Lane Arrow Closeout, Power Pass, and Sprint Recovery. The testing is used to calculate athlete's speed, endurance, lower body power, strength, and body control. There is no charge for the testing event.

Functional Movement Screen:
The tests screen for mobility/stability issues of the ankles, knees, hips and shoulders. Screen allows us to address “issues” our athletes may have and use our functional training to correct those “issues” as well as act as a preventive maintenance tool to keep our athletes performing at their optimal levels.

NEW! Mental Assessment (see additional info below)

100% Hoops members are allowed to bring teammates or friends to participate in the testing but need to RSVP to make sure their names are on our roster sheets at the Monon Center.

MENTAL ASSESMENT

Every great professional has an inner strength that made them a step ahead of the competition. These traits often determined who would make the best decisions during crunch time or pressure situations. All the professionals or collegiate athletes have taken or will take tests that measure their ability to be mentally prepared. Find out if you have the inner strength necessary to succeed at high level athletics by taking our mental preparedness assessment.


Our assessments are currently used by Major League Baseball's Scouting Bureau to identify and measure the traits that they feel are important for elite athletes. We have the same assessment built for other sports that will allow both the teams and the players to better understand what was once considered intangible.

Our assessments measure 30 traits, but these roll up into five main components which most coaches identify as crucial to the development of their players.

1. Commitment and determination to excel and succeed
2. Confidence…with strong belief in self and abilities
3. Emotional stability and balance
4. Work ethic
5. Focus

As teams look to identify the best players, it is crucial to consider not only the physical aspects of the players, but also the mental component which is often the piece that separates the ‘good’ players from the ‘great’ players.

Here is a sample report of the information that we provide to the teams for each of the players.

Athlete Success Evaluation (A.S.E.) - Individual Sports
Report for: Sample Only (user name inserted)
Completion: Month, Day, Year, Time (time stamp)



Athletic success takes more than just talent; it calls upon and tests both the mind and body. Researchers have been trying for years to determine what an elite athlete is made of, and what is required to give and maintain a consistently strong performance. Equipped with this type of insight and understanding, you can obtain a better idea about what it takes to be a psychologically-strong athlete.

General Score 52





Although you do not have all the skills and traits that characterize elite athletes, your score indicates that you have the potential to develop them over time. You would likely be successful in sports, but it would take practice, effort, and guidance, regardless of how much natural skill you have. More detailed information, including your strengths and weaknesses, is provided in the rest of the report.

HERE IS A BOOK FOR YOU TO CONSIDER READING
Excerpt from the book: GAME ON- The All American Race to Make Champions of Our Children by TOM FARREY.
STAGE 1: FUNdamentals Ages: males 6 – 9yrs, females 6 – 8yrs
Objective: To build overall motor skills… Speed, Power, and Endurance are developed using FUN games. Appropriate and correct running, jumping and throwing techniques are taught.. If children and parents have a preferred sport, participation once or twice per week is recommended, but participation in other sports three or four times per week is essential for future excellence. If the children later decide to leave the competitive stream, the skills they have acquired during the FUNdamental phase will still benefit them when they engage in recreation activities, which will enhance their quality of life and health.
STAGE 2: Learning to Train Ages: males 9 – 12yrs, females 8 – 11yrs
Objective: Build overall sports skills… During the time children are developmentally ready to acquire general sports skills that are the cornerstones of all athletic development. This is the “window of accelerated adaptation to motor coordination” … If fundamental motor significant window of opportunity has been lost, compromising the ability of the young athlete to reach their full potential… A 70 percent practice to 30 percent competition ration is recommended.
STAGE 3: Training to Train Ages: males 12 – 16yrs, females 11 – 15yrs
Objective: Build aerobic base, build strength toward the end of the phase, and future develop sport-specific skills… Special emphasis is also required for flexibility training due to the sudden growth of bones, tendons, ligaments, and muscles … During competitions, athletes play to win and to do their best, but the major focus of training is on learning the basics as opposed to competition ratio is recommended by experts, and the 40 percent includes competition and competition-specific training. However, these percentage vary according to sport and individual specific needs. Athletes undertaking this type of preparation will be better prepared for the competition in both the short and long term than those who focus solely on winning.
STAGE 4: Training to Compete Ages: Males 16-18yrs, Females 15-17yrs
Objectives: Optimize fitness preparation and sport, individual and position-specific skills as well as performance. The training-to-competition ratio now changes to 50:50 … High-intensity individual event and position-specific training is provided to athletes year-round … This emphasis on individual preparation addresses each athlete’s individual strengths and weaknesses.
STAGE 5: Training to Win Ages: Males 18+, Females 17+
Objectives: This is the final phase of athletic preparation. All of the athlete’s physical, technical, tactical, mental, personal, and lifestyle capacities are now fully established and the focus of training has shifted to the maximization of performance. Athletes are trained to peak for major competitions. Training is characterized by high intensity and relatively high volume. Frequent “prophylactic” breaks help to prevent physical and mental burnouts. Training-to-competition ratio is 25:75.
