The Baffled Parent's Guide to Great Basketball Drills by Jim Garland 
Before each practice begins, make sure you check the court and remove any debris from the playing surface.  When your players arrive, check that they have the proper footwear and that they've removed any jewelry, which could injure the player wearing the jewelry or another player.  Always carry a list of emergency phone numbers for your players, and know where the nearest phone is located.  You should also have a first-aid kit, and you might want to take a first-aid course.
