i'd say it really depends on what kind of people you're going to be going against. of course the big thing to work on is the basics... dribbling footwork, shooting form. aside from that work on your speed and agility your lack of height (no offense im over 6'6'' so most people "lack height" :P) might be a bit of a problem. also since this is a church league, when somebody beats you off the dribble... admit defeat and dont foul or use arms to block him. of course the intentional foul does have its place :D.
once you have the basics down start working on a few moves, boxing out, posting up etc. if you can find a friend who knows how to play ball well and work with him... play a little street ball or something.

btw one more piece of advice dont try to pull all kinds of fancy moves having a few simple moves that you are good at and a decent shot is a great foundation to work from. and never stop working on the basics, doing drills like the typewriter are great for ball handling... and you can never do too many layups :P

I found you yay. My first game is tommorw at 9 in the pm. They have me at PF (starting I may add

). The good news is the other 4 starters are really good and really fast. So no shooting for me I get rebounds and short post shots. Oh and I also have a new nickname due to the fact those 4 guys are of a Darker persuasion "The big Nordic ****** ******" YaY a nick name

Ok, from one church league center to another I will give you the tip that will save your life.

Use the hook, post up, fake left, roll right, and hook the ball. Get good and its easy points. Although i'm 6'4 so it may be a bit harder for you, but you can do it.
