Here for you a short training guide to improve your young players skills!
STAFF
Coach
It's required at least a level "advanced" coach for a good training. It's not necessary any training specialization.
POSITIONS AND MINUTES ON THE COURT
In order to have the best outcome from your young player, you have to train only one position (PG, SG, SF, PF or C) or at last two positions at time. You have never to train three position at time or the whole team, because the skills would improve very slower. Moreover, to reiceve the whole weekly training your guys has to play at least 48' in the trained position.
SHAPE
Players need to play between 48' and 75' per week to keep a good shape level. These minutes include the season games (on Saturday and Tuesday) and the Thursday game (National Cup or Friendly). If a player will be on the court for more than 75' you risk to have a shape fall.
MOST IMPORTANT SKILLS FOR EVERY POSITION
• Point Guard (PG)
Max Height: 198cm
Main skills: Jump Shot (JS), Outside Defense (OD), Passing (PA)
Secondary skills: Jump Range (JR), Driving (DR)
• Shooting Guard (SG)
Max Height: 198cm
Main skills: Jump Shot (JS), Outside Defense (OD), Jump Range (JR)
Secondary skills: Handling (HA), Driving (DR), Passing (PA)
• Power Forward (PF), Center (C)
Min Height: 201cm
Main skills: Inside Shot (IS), Inside Defense (ID), Rebounding (RB)
You have NEVER to train SHOT BLOCKING. It's a useless skill which also raises the salary very much.
The best training plan to grow up your young player is spending most of the training on the main skills and only some week on the secondary skills.

I would like to try to make a guide about SF... I hope you'll not take offense. :)
First of all there are three kind of SF: perimetral, insider and balanced ones. This distinction is based on its offensive abilities.
Before we start a little precisation about height and starting skills is needed. To choose players to train as SF I think the most important thing is starting levels of skills that are primary for the kind of SF that you would like to train.
After that you should consider his height, I think beetwen 190cm and 201cm is a good height but it depends on what kind of SF you are gonna train,
Now, it's time to explain each kind of SF.
PERIMETRAL SFs
SKILLS: (in order of its importance)
- primary: JS, OD, ID, JR.
- secondary: DR, RB, PASS, IS.
HEIGHT: min 190cm - max 196-198cm.
INSIDER SFs
SKILLS: (in order of its importance)
- primary: JS, OD, ID, IS.
- secondary: DR, RB, JR, PASS.
HEIGHT: min 198cm - max 203cm.
BALANCED SFs
SKILLS: (in order of its importance)
- primary: JS/IS, OD/ID.
- secondary: DR/RB/JR, PASS.
("/" means that skills are at the same level, e.g.: JS/IS 12, OD/ID 11, DR/RB/JR 9, PASS 8)
HEIGHT: min 193cm - max 198cm
IMPORTANT: primary skills should be higher
