Basketball Shooting Program Melbourne — Dr Dish Machine Training in Cheltenham
Shooting is the most practised skill in basketball and still the most commonly done wrong. The problem isn't a lack of repetition — most players shoot plenty. The problem is that repetition without correct technique just reinforces bad habits. Our 4-Week Shooting Lab in Cheltenham combines Dr Dish machine volume with expert technical coaching to actually fix your shot — not just make you shoot more.
The Dr Dish Advantage
Dr Dish is the shooting machine technology used by NBA, WNBL and elite college basketball programs worldwide. It delivers the ball to the exact spot you specify, at the exact pace you need, automatically — eliminating the time wasted chasing rebounds and allowing players to achieve shooting volumes in one session that would otherwise take hours with a rebounder.
Basketball Mentors is one of the only private coaching facilities in Melbourne's Bayside area with Dr Dish machines on site. Every Shooting Lab session includes machine time with coaching overlay — meaning every rep is corrected as it happens.
"Shooting improvement comes from two things: volume and feedback. Dr Dish solves the volume problem. Our coaches solve the feedback problem. Together, they produce changes in shooting mechanics that players can feel and see within a few sessions."
