Hello everyone,
I know its been some time since i posted anything on the blog....been a bit busy with other things, however, i have a bit of time today and i thought that i might share a little bit about Man to Man defense, which i read up on recently.
"Its not easy to learn how to position yourself when playing man to man defense, we tend to chase the man we are guarding all around the court without playing the defense intelligently. Although we do understand the concept of the weak side defense, yet we stand too close to our man to effectively help our team mate from the weak side."
Just a little point to ponder on guys!
I hope it helped!
Well that's it for now....catch you guys later with another next week.
We are an open Basketball Club of 40 members of varying ages, we achieved 1st runner up at the Colombo super league "B" division tournament 2009. We welcome anyone who wants to join our club competitively as well as for our pickup games played every Sunday from 7.00pm to 9.30pm at the D S Senanayake College Basketball Courts. Come join us! All are Welcome!

Player Training!
Hello everyone,
There are two types of training, physical and mental, one is not more important than the other. It does not matter how skilled you are if you can be beaten mentally, however, even if you are not skilled enough but are mentally strong enough, you can hold your own against near overwhelming odds. This i state through my own experiences!
I have now adopted a new strategy to train my players, i will send them to the school of hard knocks, that's where i graduated!
One on one, against me! Make or break guys! I'm taking on all comers!
See you on court!
P.S. Bring your first aid boxes!

Buffalo Basketball Club: Training!
Buffalo Basketball Club: Training!: "Its just after the mercantile tournament, the players are taking a bit of a break and i hope we will be able to see all of them by Friday's ..."
Training!
Its just after the mercantile tournament, the players are taking a bit of a break and i hope we will be able to see all of them by Friday's practice...will start with the basics! There is nothing called doing too much of fundamentals. We need to practice on developing individual skills as well as gel as a team before the tournaments commence.
Planning my practice from today.....will take 3 to 4 drills and try to perfect them. I think thats the way to go instead of cramming many drills into one practice.
Will keep you guys posted whenever i can...
Bye for now!

Web page!
The other activities of the club are coming along ok, we are making slow progress....but progress it is on the design of the blogs and websites, hopefully they will launch by September... Fazi will get together with Chanuka Wijesinghe and work on this whenever possible....its great to see other members getting involved in more ways than just practices.....GO BUFFALO!
The latest!
The Dialog Basketball team won the recently concluded knockout mercantile "a" div tournament. Congratulations to them! I am expecting the Buffalo Team to win the next tournament, may it be the Colombo Super League or the Carlton Cup....Champions! This will happen with hard work and commitment from all concerned in the club. A team effort is required to take this final step....i am expecting the players to step up when the time comes....just like a Buffalo would do!

Practice! Practice! Practice!
Hello everyone,
Its Monday morning, at work, played for a long while yesterday, feels sooooo good to hurt so bad. Need to tone up my skills to keep up with the youngsters. Need to buy some skipping ropes for the team. Will do that this week, need two more balls as well.
The team practiced a bit on friday and sunday last. Poorna and Buddhika have shown a lot of interest in attending and have improved their shooting percentages as well. I hope the tournaments get postponed a bit cus then i can activate Rimaz from the injured list. He injured his shoulder three weeks ago.
I could not attend the practice cause my friend Mafaz mohideen got married.
Need to start my own Basketball Academy. Need to get some advice from a lawyer - Attorney - at - law Dulith Jayasekara was consulted.
Need the sports act...and the constitution of the federation.
That's gonna be difficult...or so i presume.
Nothing like trying!
Will keep you guys upto date as i progress along.

Buffalo Basketball Club: A new begining !
The club practices have commenced in march, however, the team was only able to come together a few times because of the mercantile league basketball tournaments being held during the same period. Most of the players are working and representing their respective organizations. The players who are attending are working on their skills, its been quite productive as well. Buffalo Fazi is still working on the web site and other promotional aspects of the club. The web site will be up and running by the end of this month, i believe!
Looking forward to seeing the player profiles on the site. Initially the site will carry only the height and weight of the players, we are compiling the other stats as we go along with our practices.
Hope to register the clubs own Academy, the blue prints are being drawn up as i write....
I will update on the club activities and progress periodically.

A new begining !
Hello,
First let me introduce myself, my name is Dimitri Ramaneshwara, at present i am the president of "The Buffalo Basketball Club" situated in Sri Lanka. At present the club consists of approx. 24 members. The "Herd" as i refer to our members keeps growing...a good thing! We participate in almost all the Men's Tournaments held in Sri Lanka we play in the second division at the moment, with the addition of our new coach we hope to win the championship in this division before we advance to the Premiere division.
We started this club almost 7 years ago we have one runner up trophy and one second runnerup trophy in our cabinet, however, the championship trophy has eluded us till now, we will remedy this soon!
Buffalo Rimaz Hassan is the capt of the team and Purna Gunewardene is the co-ordinator, buffaloes Chanuka Wijesinghe and Fazi are helping me to promote our club over the net, we hope to create and build awareness for our club. Its been a long hard road till now, it will get harder, before we achieve our goals, but i am confident that my herd are upto the task and will overcome every obstacle!
The herd is growing.......
