I'm in 8th grade middle school and I'm 5'4.

Strenghs:

Speed- I am one of te fastest kid in the school.

Ball Handling- I have EXCELLENT ball handling,

Midrange shot- I'm decent with midrange jumpshots.

FreeThrow- I'm okay at freethrow, about 70% in games.

Passing- I'm pretty good at passing and good at avoiding turnovers.

Open Court- Great at open courts and fastbreaks.

Weaknesses:

3 point shooting- I often miss the 3 ball shot.

Rebounding- I don't usually fight for the rebound cause im shorter than other players.

Blocking- Not good at timing blocks.

Tell me what you guys think what position I should tryout for.

Thanks for the answers!

  1. Try out for the PG or Forward position.  

    But the truth is, at that level or any level, it's up to the Coach.  He'll see where you would best be suited for the offense.  

    Also just to let you know, regardless whether your short or tall....always, always block someone out for the rebound.  2 things will come out of this, one you'll get more rebounds (regardless of your height) and second the coaches will be impressed with your effort and hardwork.  


  2. you're short, point guard for sure.  but work on your shot or else you'll be harassed by more physical defenders.

  3. omg omg omg every1 STOP WITH THE DUMB QUESTIOns wtffff

    honestly what do u think uhhh center

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO of course pg my god wat center is good at ball handling speed passing open court now i can name tons of good pgs that are good in that stuff

    man that was dumb obviously point guard

  4. sf or pg

  5. dawg cmon its obvious this is  stupid question. YOUR DEFENATLEY A POINT GAURD!!!!!!!!

  6. Speed. Good-passer. Ball-handling. Hmmmmmm....... obviously a point gaurd

  7. how about point gaurd, shooting gaurd, or small foward but that is all tho.

  8. since ur pretty short u should prob play point by default, and your going to have to brolic in order to be good at that position because of your lack of height
