Basketball drill: stations
Stations
- Divide players into groups of 5.
- Normally we have 2 or 3 baskets available.
- For example, every 7 minutes turn over, first center explanation. (most guidance on the dribbling skills needed)
- Station 1. (Basket 1)
- 3x2 play from the center line without dribbling (only passing, free running, pivoting)
- Station 2. (basket 2)
- 1x1 play (substitution, attacker becomes defender, occasionally change the order to get different match-ups, 1-shot attempt or under time pressure to keep up the momentum)
- Station 3. (Basket 3 - if available)
- Shooting exercise: 5 positions on edge of bucket (low, elbow, free throw line, elbow low).
- 1 player shoots, others catch and pass the ball (1 shot per position, highest score of the group)
- Station 4 dribbling skills. (1-2 pawns)
- Over the pylon (do not take it with you, keep control, from left to right, 1 hand behind your back)
- Lift the pylon with the left, dribble with the right (throw the pylon, catch it with the other hand)
- Left/right and touch pylon (timer, counting) - hand that releases the ball must touch pylon (low position, defend the ball)
- 2 pawns, dribble left, touch right
- 2 cones (8 dribble with 1 hand)
- Station 5 dribbling skills. (row of pawns)
- Slalom around the pawns, low dribble, back and forth (tempo)
- Variant: low dribble, feet on both sides of the pawns, cross after every pylon.
- Low dribble, always touching the according pawns.
- Stay in control, stay on the same side. (dribble left, touch pylon with right)
