Lily (10 years old) Shooting Clips

This is Lily - she is a 10 year old who has a goal of being able to shoot a 3 pointer next season. She was born with a neurological condition that also affects her walking ability - which is why she is walks on her tippy toes.

The outside clips she is shooting slightly further away. And I brought her in closer to the hoop for her indoor clips. I do notice throughout all of our sessions that her feet placement changes quite frequently - sometimes her feet are more narrow, sometimes they are a little wider and other times she is almost in a Sumo Squat.

I know her feet might not be the most pressing issue with her shot - I think my biggest question is, if I know a player has a neurological condition that affects her feet... do I consider her feet "off limits" to adjust or talk about with her?

I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts!!
