My son Pat has 2 rep sessions Wed Night Hr & qtr, 2 hrs on Sunday but is only 1 1/2 for Sundays for finals as the ones don't train anymore.

He has a 1 hr session with his domestic team. He plays rep Friday night & dom on Saturadys. He also trains himself quite alot at home. The Pacer's coach has talked about him getting one on one sessions with the new coordinator & his eyes lit up.

I guess it depends on the individual but you'd think that the top level rep players would be really committed & never get enough basketball.
