King Kamehameha Golf Club is Maui's loftiest golf experience -- literally and figuratively.
Set 750 feet high up into the West Maui mountains, this private club with a "member-for-the-day" option features a secluded golf course set on the sloping hills, where the only sound is a little breeze and trickling waterfalls set beside several greens. Most holes above and below one another are parallel to the mountainside, while a couple of par 3s play sharply downhill. With the West Maui mountains beside you and the rest of Maui below, the closest homes you'll see are a few miles away along the south Maui coast.
The fact no homes are anywhere near the golf course, designed by Ted Robinson Sr. and Ted Robinson Jr., makes the 74,000-square-foot clubhouse, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, stand out that much more. Originally designed to be the home of Arthur Miller and Marilyn Monroe, the plans were later enlarged to house Maui's most exclusive golf club.
Kahili Golf Course
Golf courses that are among the most affordable in Hawaii might indicate the design has an unremarkable setting or was simply a vehicle for residential development. That's not the case at Kahili Golf Course.
Kahili opened in 1991 under the name Sandalwood Golf Course. Hawaii expert golf course architect Robin Nelson designed this 6,570-yard layout, which has some great variety. Located just below King Kamehameha Golf Club, the Kahili Golf Course still sits high enough into the West Maui mountainside and is clear of houses. Instead, holes dogleg through a mix of open and more low-lying, densely forested holes.
Gold and Emerald Courses at Wailea Golf Club
The original Old Blue golf course is the centerpiece of the Wailea community's residential development. But on the newer Wailea Gold and Wailea Emerald Courses, the only development you're playing around are the centuries-old stone wall remnants (named "papohaku") from the fishing villages that used to reside here.
Robert Trent Jones Jr. designed both the Gold and the Emerald Courses in the early 1990s. Each plays on the base of Mount Haleakala, leading down toward the sea. The Gold is the tougher of the two, while the Emerald is one of Maui's most player-friendly courses. Each has a similar setting: plenty of flower beds, lava rock, small ponds and fairways sculpted into the sloping hillsides.
The Gold, Emerald and Old Blue Courses come with an added bonus from upstairs: Some of the calmest fairways in Hawaii thanks to the 10,000-foot volcano shielding the brunt of the Hawaiian trade winds.

referring to golfing great Seve Ballesteros
The 31-year-old Garcia, playing on a course where he was club champion at the age of 12, shot an 8-under 63 in the final round to finish at 27-under 257.
“That was for Seve,” Garcia said, referring to golfing great Seve Ballesteros, who died of brain cancer in May.
Garcia had shot his best ever back-to-back rounds of 63 and 64 to lead the field since Friday, and he did not let up on the final day, recording nine birdies and just his fourth bogey in the event.
.“It’s hard to say that you expect to fire like I did, but I was feeling good and I’ve been improving all year,” Garcia said.
“At the beginning of the week there’s always a little extra pressure because you want to do well in front of your home fans and on your home course. But I felt really good and it showed.”
Fellow Spaniard Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano finished a distant second, and Alexander Noren was third.
Once ranked No. 2, Garcia had dropped outside the top 75 after near-misses at the 2007 British Open at Carnoustie and 2008 PGA Championship at Oakland Hills.
He has now returned to the top 35 with his second win at the Club de Campo del Mediterraneo, capping his improved season that includes top-12 finishes in the last three majors.
“I would like to thank not only my family and friends, but also my sponsors, everyone that’s around me, for supporting me through two tough years,” Garcia said. “They have stuck with me and believed in me and I’m happy to be able to pay them back with this victory.”

Chinese women's volleyball
As a coach, Lang Ping, who led the Chinese women's volleyball team made the Olympic Games and World Championship runner-up performance, in addition she had also made a brilliant Italian league record, and led the U.S. team won a silver medal in the Beijing Olympic Games, for the development of volleyball as well as foreign the level of foreign Volleyball League has in-depth knowledge and understanding.
Now some of China's development of volleyball stagnant League criticized the level of more people, and in the coach of the Chinese volleyball league club has two years later, Lang Ping Volleyball League for the development of China and the problems encountered give their views. Lang Ping said: "I do not think that our league is not good enough now to play volleyball volleyball very small population, as we had never been seen when playing sports school in each city is very much in the beginning of high school girls play volleyball in the so many people of course, family planning is now only one child per family may be reluctant to let him (her) to play, or he (she) has other talents, playing volleyball in a small population, and the popularity of our population Volleyball League certainly would be less.
Another one of our volleyball rules are constantly changing, I think, and our 30 years of volleyball rules have a particularly revolutionary, of course, this is based on the needs of the times, such as every score the ball, control the game time, including the generation of free people, as we had to be a very complete player, and now as ZhaoRuiRui (microblogging) as the height of the athletes back but can not participate in, using her own advantage, but she can have a little to the rear sub-athletes put to Participate in more players, volleyball is more intense more exciting, and now athletes physical, height, strength is not the same than before all, it is not 30 years ago to compare the old women's volleyball Of course, we do from the technical requirements more stringent, comprehensive and detailed, but do not forget to change the world now, volleyball rule changes. "
Lang went on saying : "Of course we can not say the league is no problem, (including grassroots included) have some issues, we are constantly exploring, let the world exactly like a relatively high level of Italy, Brazil, Japan, including Russia League as full study has not come to that level, while, as the transfer of foreign players to join, now only Hengda can do it a little bit, we hope to use their meager strength to participate in the league in which we work together discuss what is more suitable for China's volleyball league, I think you can not rest on its laurels, behind closed doors to play their league, we must communicate, must have the participation of foreign players, there are different concepts and awareness of people to participate, so that it can enrich Our volleyball league, we can better market, including our volleyball star publicity to attract more fans, if there are more superstars to attract more viewers, including all aspects of the business to support the team.
I hope that in the limited time to teach Chinese Volleyball League to bring more new concepts, regardless of available unavailable, and hope to have more attempts. I think the Chinese people still love watching volleyball, as long as we can devote more exciting game, attendance was very high, of course, now first-tier cities is lower than the second-tier cities, we are calling for increased Volleyball Association contests.

Caddie Williams apologizes for Scott snub
ATLANTA, Georgia - Steve Williams, the caddie fired by Tiger Woods last month after serving as his bagman for 13 of his 14 major triumphs, apologized on Wednesday for snubbing his new employer after a victory.
The move came on the eve of the 93rd PGA Championship, where Woods said he was surprised at comments by Williams last Sunday that seemed to diminish their 12 years together and ignore Adam Scott's Bridgestone Invitational victory.
Williams, a 47-year-old New Zealander who was cheered by name while walking alongside Scott up the 18th hole in the World Golf Championships event at Firestone, called it "the best week of my life" and "most satisfying win".
"I have been caddying for 33 years, 145 wins, and that's the best win I've ever had," Williams said. "I sort of believe in destiny sometimes."
Woods chose his words carefully on Wednesday and said little about the flap, although he said his agent, Mark Steinberg, met Williams on Tuesday.
"I'm not going to speculate on Stevie," Woods said. "Those are obviously his feelings and his emotions and his decision to say what he wants to say."
On his website, Williams posted a statement apologizing to Scott, who said on Tuesday he had spoken to Williams and had no problem with the comments.
"My emotions following Adam's victory were running very high and at the time I felt like my emotions poured out and got the better of me," Williams said in his statement.
"I apologize to my fellow caddies and professionals for failing to mention Adam's outstanding performance. I would like to thank all those fans at Firestone who made this victory the most special of my career."
Woods said he sent Williams a congratulatory text message after the final round last Sunday.
"I was happy to see Stevie and Adam win. Adam has been a friend of mine, and same with Stevie," Woods said.
"I sent Stevie a nice text after completion of play, congratulating him on his win. It was good to see them go out there and play as well as they did."
Asked if he and Williams had spoken or exchanged messages since Williams made his comments, Woods said, "I think that's between Stevie and myself."
Former World No 1 Woods, now ranked 30th after missing much of this season with left leg injuries, was 15 strokes back at the WGC event on a course where he had won seven times before with Williams as caddie.
Woods dodged the question when asked if Williams had been disloyal, having defined loyalty as trust earned over time, and again when asked if he regretted the way he split with Williams, which he said came face-to-face at last month's PGA National.
"Sometimes we all need changes and this was a change," Woods said. "I was at peace with it. It was a decision and a direction I wanted to go and that's it."
The move came on the eve of the 93rd PGA Championship, where Woods said he was surprised at comments by Williams last Sunday that seemed to diminish their 12 years together and ignore Adam Scott's Bridgestone Invitational victory.

"I have been caddying for 33 years, 145 wins, and that's the best win I've ever had," Williams said. "I sort of believe in destiny sometimes."
Woods chose his words carefully on Wednesday and said little about the flap, although he said his agent, Mark Steinberg, met Williams on Tuesday.
"I'm not going to speculate on Stevie," Woods said. "Those are obviously his feelings and his emotions and his decision to say what he wants to say."
On his website, Williams posted a statement apologizing to Scott, who said on Tuesday he had spoken to Williams and had no problem with the comments.
"My emotions following Adam's victory were running very high and at the time I felt like my emotions poured out and got the better of me," Williams said in his statement.
"I apologize to my fellow caddies and professionals for failing to mention Adam's outstanding performance. I would like to thank all those fans at Firestone who made this victory the most special of my career."
Woods said he sent Williams a congratulatory text message after the final round last Sunday.
"I was happy to see Stevie and Adam win. Adam has been a friend of mine, and same with Stevie," Woods said.
"I sent Stevie a nice text after completion of play, congratulating him on his win. It was good to see them go out there and play as well as they did."
Asked if he and Williams had spoken or exchanged messages since Williams made his comments, Woods said, "I think that's between Stevie and myself."
Former World No 1 Woods, now ranked 30th after missing much of this season with left leg injuries, was 15 strokes back at the WGC event on a course where he had won seven times before with Williams as caddie.
Woods dodged the question when asked if Williams had been disloyal, having defined loyalty as trust earned over time, and again when asked if he regretted the way he split with Williams, which he said came face-to-face at last month's PGA National.
"Sometimes we all need changes and this was a change," Woods said. "I was at peace with it. It was a decision and a direction I wanted to go and that's it."
Love wants to play on his Ryder Cup team
ATLANTA, Georgia - Davis Love knows he will be on the 2012 US Ryder Cup squad after being selected as the US captain last January, but he wants to play his way into the 12-man lineup as well.
The 47-year-old veteran of six Ryder Cup and six Presidents Cup squads also says Americans need to relax against Europe in the Ryder Cup the way they do against the Internationals in the Presidents Cup to be more successful.
But Love hopes to help make that happen from the inside. One year ahead of the qualifying cutoff for eight automatic berths, Love stands in the final playing spot based on points.
"I made 12 (Ryder and Presidents Cup) teams in a row and I've been frustrated ever since," Love said. "I want to make another Ryder Cup team. I'm hitting the ball well enough to play on the team. I just need to make a couple more putts.
"It would rank pretty high. I'm not going to make it when I'm 55 probably, so I need to go ahead and get it done."
Love, whose only major title came at the 1997 PGA Championship, knows the tension of the Ryder Cup quest and the more casual feeling US players have regarding the Presidents Cup and its non-European lineup.
"We putt better at the Presidents Cup than we do at the Ryder Cup," Love said. "We are the European team when we play the Presidents Cup. We are a little bit more relaxed and play more of our game.
"At the Ryder Cup, the American team, they try too hard.
"They want to win too bad. Presidents Cup we relax and play like the Europeans. They do it like one or two points better than us. It's not like a huge difference, and we need to figure out how to have a little bit more fun and relaxation on the course."
Leading America's bid to reclaim the trophy from Europe next year at Medinah has got Love picking out clothing and bag colors and working behind the scenes even as he tries to play his best and keep a watchful eye on young US talent.
"It's going to be pretty volatile because we have so many good young guys that will be bouncing around in the points list," Love said.
"It might be the Scott Stallings and Gary Woodlands and all those guys might knock my (Jim) Furyks and Stewart Cinks out. You don't know where we are going to be."

Malaysian girls got gold medal
Malaysian women celebrated a rare success at the international arena when the pair of Vivian Kah and Woon Khe Wee won the Doubles title at the Bankaltim Indonesian Open Gold Grand Prix last weekend.
In an intensely absorbing match, the Malaysian youngsters prevailed in a come-from-behind19-21, 21-19, 21-18 victory over the higher placed Bao Yixin & Zhong Gianzin of China. The Chinese girls had only a week earlier won the more prestigious Japan leg of the Super Series. The Chinese pair is ranked 48 by Badminton World Federation while Vivian & Woo are at 60.
The success of the youngsters who are both in their early twenties, obviously must have brought the smiles to the faces of the people who manage the sport in Malaysia where women badminton has never scored any major success along the international arena. The second Malaysian pairing of Chin Eei Hui & Wong Pei Tty, who at one stage were top ranked by BWF have in recent times faded off through injury and are ranked at 23.
Vivian & Woon play a pretty good brand of the game and have been consistently improving. With proper guidance and continued exposure, there is every likelihood of a promising playing career for the duo.
But it was not all lost for the Chinese girls when Bao Yixin later teamed up with He Habin to clinch the gold in the Mixed Doubles.
The shock of the tournament must really be the elimination of the pre-tournament favourite, the enduring warrior Taufik Hidayat in the semi-finals. He lost out quite tamely 21-10, 21-15 to young Tommy Sugiarto, son of the 1983 World Champion Icuk.
Taufik has been having a relatively ’quiet’ season since his success at the 2004 Olympics and 2005 World Championships. Obviously age is gradually taking its toll on one of the game’s most colourful and popular players.
For the young Tommy, the win against Taufik only brought him momentary joy, for 24 hours later, his teammate Rumbaka Hayam, ranked eight rungs below at 27, finished stronger with an exciting 21-15, 21-16 win in the final.
The French veteran and seasoned campaigner Pi Hongyan, who was seeking her first Grand Prix win of the year failed against her younger Chinese opponent Chen Xiao Jia in the final. In a match that went all the way to the ‘rubber’, a visibly tiring Hongyan had to finally hand the gold medal to Xiao Jia who will go on record as one of the lowest ranked players to win a Gold event. The Chinese is presently at 113 against Hongyan 19th ranking.

Spin
Balls may be spun to alter their bounce (for example, topspin and backspin in tennis), and players may slice the ball (strike it with an angled racket face) to produce such spin; but, since the shuttlecock is not allowed to bounce, this does not apply to badminton.
Slicing the shuttlecock so that it spins, however, does have applications, and some are particular to badminton. (See Basic strokes for an explanation of technical terms.)
Slicing the shuttlecock from the side may cause it to travel in a different direction from the direction suggested by the player's racket or body movement. This is used to deceive opponents.
Slicing the shuttlecock from the side may cause it to follow a slightly curved path (as seen from above), and the deceleration imparted by the spin causes sliced strokes to slow down more suddenly towards the end of their flight path. This can be used to create dropshots and smashes that dip more steeply after they pass the net.
When playing a netshot, slicing underneath the shuttlecock may cause it to turn over itself (tumble) several times as it passes the net. This is called a spinning netshot or tumbling netshot. The opponent will be unwilling to address the shuttlecock until it has corrected its orientation.
Due to the way that its feathers overlap, a shuttlecock also has a slight natural spin about its axis of rotational symmetry. The spin is in a counter-clockwise direction as seen from above when dropping a shuttlecock. This natural spin affects certain strokes: a tumbling netshot is more effective if the slicing action is from right to left, rather than from left to right

Bayern is right to get rid of Van Gaal, claims Kahn
Defending German champion Bayern Munich was right to show Dutch coach Louis van Gaal the door after its third consecutive defeat, ex-Bayern and Germany captain Oliver Kahn said on Wednesday.
In the wake of Saturday's 3-1 defeat at Hanover, van Gaal was told on Monday his Bayern contact will be terminated at the end of the season, a year before it was due to expire.
Home defeats to Dortmund, in the league, and the German Cup exit at the hands of Schalke had put van Gaal under pressure before the Hanover defeat.
Bayern is fifth in the Bundesliga, seven points from the second place which will give it an automatic Champions League place next season, and Kahn says his ex-club was right to end van Gaal's two-year reign prematurely.
"It was absolutely logical," Kahn told Munich newspaper TZ.
"I consider any other decision would have been unwise.
"It is now the duty of the team to take responsibility.
"I can't imagine a single Bayern player who wants to play in the Europa League next season.
"At the moment, it's of no interest to the players who the coach is."

Brandao released on bail in rape investigation
Marseille's Brazilian striker Brandao has been released on bail after being placed under investigation for the alleged rape of a 23-year-old woman, his lawyer confirmed on Wednesday.
Lawyer Patricia Clusan said the alleged victim had withdrawn her accusation but that did not stop the case being pursued by prosecutors.
"He left free, I said yesterday (Tuesday) that in this case prudence was needed," said Clusan, adding: "And after having consulted the dossier and heard Mr Brandao's explanations I think that logic prevailed."
Brandao was driven away from court in a luxury 4x4 driven by Marseille Sporting Director Jose Anigo.
"We're happy that he left free, we'll see what the investigation into this affair reveals, I can assure you that Mr Brandao has for the moment not had the benefit of the presumption of innocence, that's the least that we can say, I think that the investigation will show that he was (innocent)," his lawyer said.
The 30-year-old player appeared before a court in the southern French city on Wednesday afternoon, a day after being arrested at his home and taken in for questioning as part of the police investigation.
The woman on Friday accused Brandao of raping her at a motorway stopover as he drove her home from a nightclub in Aix-en-Provence last week.

Details
When the server serves, the shuttlecock must pass over the short service line on the opponents' court or it will count as a fault.
If the score reaches 20-all, then the game continues until one side gains a two point lead (such as 24–22), up to a maximum of 30 points (30–29 is a winning score).
At the start of a match, the shuttlecock is cast and the side towards which the shuttlecock is pointing serves first. Alternatively, a coin may be tossed, with the winners choosing whether to serve or receive first, or choosing which end of the court to occupy, and their opponents making the leftover the remaining choice.
In subsequent games, the winners of the previous game serve first. Matches are best out of three: a player or pair must win two games (of 21 points each) to win the match. For the first rally of any doubles game, the serving pair may decide who serves and the receiving pair may decide who receives. The players change ends at the start of the second game; if the match reaches a third game, they change ends both at the start of the game and when the leading player's or pair's score reaches 11 points.
The server and receiver must remain within their service courts, without touching the boundary lines, until the server strikes the shuttlecock. The other two players may stand wherever they wish, so long as they do not block the vision of the server or receiver.

Hitting and pace
The pace we will, but it's still a lot of people use small garrulous step, it will make everyone is consumption of physical, like ball slowly. We all like the Williams sisters play.
In fact, their pace is to use the open, you can make yourself less ran a few steps, is simply to cross to move, start. The pace can be bigger. When I first practiced cross step is not used, then go to my changes back to a small garrulous step, but if you go to remind ourselves that the run will be familiar with. Batting we will also,
I have to say that hitting the open. Are taken, mainly to handle future spread. General extension. His right leg to take a step. When hitting the body face to be motionless after, use swing as a result the waist turn power arm driven small arms to form hitting the racket like a whip.
When you hit the ball hitting the ball in the location of the stop, this keeps the ball judgement, be aware of. Alicia Molik is one such. Usually in the bottom line is not the best attacking opportunity, but exerting force with xiaowei was always on the bottom line. This is her style. But her hand very standard specification.
Is face motionless staring at the ball. This habit is very good. Backhand is to straighten (half open) opened back up. Is also a swiveling waist and abdomen punches. I like small well-play ball, backhand is her hitting the open, the arm bent, is driven by exerting force with small arms. Anyway, hitting on personal feeling.

High pressure ball
Ball is also a deceptively simple in tennis, but bad mastering a technology. I saw material says so. When you're playing ball, not take pictures of the hand to the ball, let the ball fall vertical grab that ball is to let the ball vertically falling in your hands.
Took pictures of the other as well as serve, 90 degrees back open, hitting the ball to your point when it took the ball straight down. Remember, the ball with their hands to straighten.
Also to external pressure wrist, this gives strength when hitting something. If it is a close network of high-pressure ball, the angle you want to open. If the ball is close to the bottom line, you want to make deep, was also to go to the location of each other's bottom line.
So what is best for themselves. It is also very important is that when faced with high ball flying high in the, don't put the ball back, be sure to use cross-step point-up to move back. Ball is the most important is not power, is the angle.
The Internet is undoubtedly a very important technique in tennis. Our starters, is not very good, and because it is easy to access errors. First, when each other when the ball back to the light, you will be able to cut the ball cut the ball back to each other's bottom line, deepest point as far as possible, the angle a bit. Each other's balls go back to your site can be cut back with the ball near the line access to the Internet, misunderstanding, many volleys were bent when lumber to reach balls, volleys, this is wrong, interception should be curved legs, waist and straight, but also to the toe, the pace is toe friction surface, like skipping rope. You can stride when traverse move, cross step to reach.

Who wins Senior tournament
The 55-year-old Hanefeld, a PGA Life member from Acton, Mass., shot a 3-over 75 -- the highest closing round by a winner in the showcase event for senior PGA pros -- at Creighton Farms to finish at 6-under 282. Martin, from Wellington, Fla., had a two-stroke lead after 16 holes, but he bogeyed the final two holes for a 74.
"It wasn't pretty," said Hanefeld, also the 2008 winner.
Hanefeld, who set the tournament 36-hole record at 11 under and shot a 74 on Saturday to take a two-stroke lead into the final round, bogeyed four of the first five holes Sunday.
"I really don't feel like I won a golf tournament, but golf is a wacky game," Hanefeld said.
Hanefeld's erratic round included a birdie at the fifth hole, then bogeys at Nos. 8, 12, 13, 15 and 16. He hit a 96-yard wedge approach at 18 that landed beyond the hole and spun back within 18 inches.
Martin's tee shot at 18 nestled into an awkward position in the left fairway bunker. He blasted out, then hit a hybrid from a poor lie in the rough, before sailing a wedge approach over the green. He chipped back to 4 feet, made his bogey putt and watched as Hanefeld made the winning birdie putt.
"Making birdie on the last hole was great, but there wasn't too many highlights for me today," said Hanefeld, who earned $20,000 from the $285,000 purse. "But to win is obviously very satisfying. Kenny played really, really well up until the last few holes and I gave a lot back to him."
The 52-year-old Martin, the PGA teaching professional at Village Golf Club in Royal Palm Beach, Fla., said he didn't check his position in the championship until he shook hands with Hanefeld on the 72nd green.
"I actually had no idea where we stood, and I wanted to keep it that way," Martin said. "I hit a great shot on 15, and knew that Kirk was making bogey. To be honest, I wasn't thinking about anything but the next shot. There was a lot of waiting between shots and I was trying to find my rhythm.
"I was stuck in the bunker at 18, then had a horrible lie, hit the wedge shot thin and made a heck of a bogey. Then, I found out at the end that he won by a shot!"
Darrell Kestner of Glen Cove, N.Y., closed with a 68 to tie for third at even par with Craig Stevens of Dallas, Ga. Stevens finished with a 75. Fred Holton of Montgomery, Ala., and Tim White of Midlothian, Va., tied for fifth at 1 over. Holton had a 77, and White shot a 77.
The top 35 finishers earned spots in the Senior PGA Championship in May at Harbor Shores in Benton Harbor, Mich. The top five received exemptions into the final stage of the 2011 Champions Tour Q-school.

Why to watch this game?
In Game 1, Rick Porcello relieved Justin Verlander in the bottom of the fifth after the rain delay and looked superb. It might have been the best I've seen him since July. His movement was terrific, getting four easy groundouts and striking out Mike Napoli with a 93 mph sinker.
Though it seemed as though Tigers manager Jim Leyland pushed all the right buttons up to this point, his players must execute if they are put in positions to succeed. In Game 1 of the ALCS, one Tiger didn't get the job done on two separate occasions.
Before the game, Leyland told me that Ryan Raburn and Brandon Inge were going to be keys for the Tigers' offense. With Delmon Young out with an oblique injury, the Tigers will be hard pressed to replace his bat. Last night, Raburn did his job in the No. 2 hole by getting on base three times, but Inge failed in both of his RBI opportunities.
In the second inning, with two men on and one out, Inge was punched out on a C.J. Wilson slider. Later in the fifth, with a man on second, Inge grounded out. The Tigers' lack of depth can't sustain losing a starter like Young, and it severely hampers Leyland's mix-and-match lineup and defensive strategies. On the other hand, Texas can carry a slumping Nelson Cruz until he breaks out because of ample outfield depth, and last night it paid off with Cruz slamming a 396-foot home run in the bottom of the fourth.

What is the efforts that FIBA has made
Most youngsters who have held a basketball in their hands dream to be a star, they may picture themselves making that buzzer beater or getting the crowd off their seats with a spectacular dunk. But those sportsmen and women who do actually make it big quickly realize that what happens off the court is a very important part of managing their professional careers. This happens all the time.
FIBA’s efforts to increase player awareness of some of the key off-court issues have resulted in the development of the Athletes Guide to Off-Court Development. This document aims to provide professional athletes with a reliable and trustworthy source of basic advice specifically tailored to the needs of sports professionals.
This guide takes four fundamental on-court parameters - team, skills, rules and game plan – and applies them to off-court situations, for an easy to understand entry level guide to managing a career in basketball.
One of the main ideas behind the this comparative approach is to illustrate that many of the keys to success on the court can be easily applied off the court, contributing towards a management of the athletes career that is just as important, but that can have a tendency to be neglected.
Team
Every player is aware of the importance of working together with teammates, his coaches and medical staff. If no player can make it alone on the court, the same applies off the court.
Teamwork includes working with FIBA, agents, media and sponsors, which is essential if a player is to maximise his professional and financial opportunities. Working alongside other stakeholders can also help demonstrate the values of the sport in a positive way, which is not only a moral responsibility, but also an beneficial career move for the athlete.
Skills
Players spend large amounts of time working on improving their fundamentals, their technique and their skills.
In the same way, improving and developing communication skills, presentation skills and general professionalism is essential if a player is to make a positive impression on those who can impact their careers in the short and long-term.
Rules
For professional basketball players, knowing how to play by the rules off-the-court is just as important as knowing those that govern the game from jump-ball to buzzer.
Living with and adjusting to new cultures is more important than ever today, when careers often involve moving from one country to another and travelling from continent to continent.
Managing conflict off-the-court and avoiding unnecessary obstacles that distract players from performing on-the-court are also part of the daily lives of players.
Game plan
To succeed as a team and an individual, having a pre-defined plan in place before taking to the court is an essential dimension to basketball as with all sports. Similarly, having the right plan in place for managing each step of their career, including life after retirement, deserves a little thought and consideration. Players should set long-term career goals and decide the necessary steps to achieve them (e.g. education, training, etc.).
To set up the right game plan requires a large number of parameters to be taken into account. An important of these include financial considerations, which can be hard to understand and yet have very important consequences.
