The NBSA was originally established in 2009 to create a shooting program designed to improve basketball shooting in game time. Not only improve basketball shooting in game time but to create a separate international, national, regional and local sport of just basketball shooting. The founders of the NBSA are among the world's best shooters and teachers of shooting.
Basketball shooting events have been in existence for a lot of years but only for the seniors (50 and over) in senior games and for kids in the Elks (12 and under) and Knights of Columbus (14 and under) programs. The NBSA set out to provide these kind of shooting tournaments and events for the kids and young adults that are playing the game of basketball (ages 14 to 49) as well as the seniors, because we know the kind of tournament focus and concentration totally on just shooting is most
important to improvement.
To improve, a shooter needs to know his/her current practice percentage through keeping daily records and of course to understand basketball shooting fundamentals and how to practice. This is why we exist and why we offer NBSA shooting instruction at all our major championship events. We are here to help! We offer basketball shooting instruction from the world's NBSA top shooters at all our major tournament championship events.
In the NBSA top ten world rankings you will find many of the best basketball shooters and teachers of shooting in the world, many of whom are the original NBSA founders: Jim "Makevery" Schatz, Eddie Palubinskas, Fred Newman, Dr. Tom Amberry, Dave Hopla, Rick Rosser, Bob Owen, Ted St. Martin, James Pauley, Ronn Wyckoff, Dr. Jim Poteet, Bob McCoid, Duane Shaw, John Ackerman, Rod Kirshner, Kay Seameyer and Ann O'Neil.
2015 NBSA World Free Throw Rankings: 1-Ed Palubinskas, 2-Mike Scudder, 3-Rick Rosser, 4-Dave Hopla, 5-Bob Owen, 6-James Pauley, 7-Ronn Wyckoff, 8-Bob McCoid, 9-Duane Shaw 10-Ann O'Neil.
We have been holding our World Invitational basketball shooters event in conjunction with the Nevada State Senior Games in October every year since 2011. We qualify the 8 top scores from the age division competition n free throw (25 shots) and qualify the 8 top scores from the age divison competition in the three point competition (25 shots from 5 positions) and then seed them into a
free throw and three point draw where they go head to head, first to make 25, sudden death if tied. Winner moves on to the next round.
Our third shooting event is probably the most fun and is called the (sponsor to be named) "Make Every Shot Challenge" and it's a 60 second timed event. In the timed event we take the top two shooters who scored the highest in the age division competition and let then compete against
each other for the title.
Our over all (results of all three events) 2014 World Invitational Basketball Shooters Champion was James Pauley. He set the bar extremely high in 2014 by winning all three events over a stellar
field of veteran NBSA shooters. The first time any of our shooters have been that dominate.
James Pauley is also the #1 shooter on Noah Basketball's shooter’s ladder. He is the Southern California Noah Basketball rep, www.noahbasketball.com, and he is one of the busiest shooting coaches in basketball, selling and giving free Noah Basketball clinics primarily in Southern California and also coaching the NBSA shooting program for various high schools and colleges.
