Evidence That My Shooting Methods Work

During the 2019-2020 season I was privileged enough to be selected as the Director of Player Development for the CCS Division 2 Champion Hillsdale Knight’s Boys Basketball team. In late December and early January of 2019-2020 I conducted 5 shooting clinics for the team. Each clinic was held 1-3 days prior to a game. We mainly focused on how to effectively shoot 3-pointers.

The results below speak for themselves. A MIT Computer Science graduate evaluated the data and concluded that the data was statistically significant and that the shooting clinics were responsible for the drastic improvement in regard to the team's 3-point shooting.

Why Choose Splash Doctor?

Dan Hibson is an expert when it comes to helping youth, teens, & adults become exceptional basketball shooters. There are different mechanics a player must apply when shooting a shot, depending on whether a player is shooting off the catch or creating their own shot off the dribble. Different mechanics are also needed to successfully shoot from beyond the arc than are necessary to successfully shoot mid-range pull-ups or free throws.

Splash Doctor takes pride in the fact that we can uniquely design skills and drills depending on what we confidently assess will result in measurable and sustainable improvements.

Splash Doctor Coaching focuses on three crucial components when it comes to shooting:

(1) Flow & Rhythm
(2) Release Timing
(3) Shot Path

Testimonials

Jr. Cotton

San Mateo County Basketball Player of the Year, 2019-2020

“Coach Dan taught me that a 3 point shot is different than a midrange shot. After he showed me what adjustments to make, my 3 point efficiency dramatically improved and ultimately was a huge reason I was named the “County Player of the Year.”

Nathan Iskander

San Mateo Offensive Football Player of the Year, 2019

“Coach Dan taught me how to channel my emotions in a way that helped me move closer to my goals when they used to do the opposite.”

Sunny Balopole

“Coach Dan taught me many life lessons using sports as an analogy. I’m not sure where my life would be without him and I’m grateful he still mentors me to this day.”

Vanessa Gutierrez

“In addition to helping me develop as a basketball player, Coach Dan mentored me on and off the court. He was always there for me whenever I needed advice and still is to this day.”

Roxanna

San Mateo Police Officer

“After graduating high school I worked for Coach Dan. He helped me figure out what I wanted to do with my life and put me in a position to succeed. I’m a police officer today and I’m happy that Coach Dan provided me the guidance and mentorship to help me achieve my goals.”

Quinta Ekong

Coach Dan is an excellent coach! I consider myself more of an athlete than a basketball player. I came in with minimal basketball knowledge. But lots of strength. Coach Dan was able to analyze my skills and create a way for me to increase my free throw percentage rapidly.

Joe Goethals

Former 2x Mayor of San Mateo, CA

“Dan builds confidence and leadership skills at the same time as fundamentals. Mindset is as important to making the shot as form. I’ve known Dan for over 40 years. His players learn more than basketball. “

Mike Blondino

Former ASA President, Current Director of Carmichael Parks & Recreation

“I worked with Dan for 10 years and was always impressed with his care and dedication to the young adults he worked with in every sport he’s coached.  Being in the sports profession for 30+ years I’ve seen many excellent coaches and there are none better than Dan Hibson. He never stops working to make his players better as athletes and more importantly as human beings.”

Tyler Fernandez

“Coach Dan knows more about shooting than anyone I’ve ever met.  He improved my shooting efficiency quickly and dramatically. He always emphasized that “flow”, “shooting path”, & “release timing” are essential to becoming a great shooter.  Coach Dan taught me the mechanical differences between shooting a free-throw, a pull-up jumper, and a 3 pointer.  He genuinely cares about me and I’m very fortunate that I have the opportunity to learn from him. I love shooting now more than ever!”
