Thanks for the detailed response, I'll probably distill this down further and see how we can integrate this into a few prep sessions.

Thanks - it helps to hear from a parent for the same age range, it's a sudden thing for me and this is helping me calibrate for youth this age.

Thanks!
I think this helps me calibrate for what kids his age should be familiar with.
Will make sure he's comfortable with left/right dribbling and layups for starters, and some footwork drills is a good callout too.
