Basketball drills
- 5 x 2 free throws.
- 2 groups side by side.
- Each takes turns shooting.
- Count how many in.
- 2 misses = length of run.
- 1 miss = half length run.
- 2 groups
- At the level of the free throw line
- First a v-cut, then get ball
- Pivoting and shooting
- Own rebound
- Connecting on the other side
Notice:
- With pivot on right foot
- Passing with right or left hand, depending on side
- 20 scores
- Pivot and dribble to goal, lay-up
- Straight to goal driven
- Pivot and dribble to goal, jump stop
- Everyone stands in a circle and start with 1 ball.
- The first player calls out the name of the person he/she wants to pass to and only when he/she looks does the player give a pass of their choice; collision, chest, overhead.
- If this goes well, you can differentiate to multiple balls.
Per 2 players facing each other.
Play ball across:
Play ball across:
- Chest pass.
- Right pass -step around push pass-.
- Left pass.
- Overhead pass.
Variation:
Put a defender between the 2.
On wrong pass, passer becomes the defender.
Put a defender between the 2.
On wrong pass, passer becomes the defender.
- 2 sides of the field.
- Put down 3 pylons; 3-point, 2-point, 1-point.
- 2 rows, can also do 2 per side if there are too many players.
- 1 player shoots 3x in a row, 1x from each position, and we count out loud.
- Whoever gets to 31 first.
- 3 groups: Top, down left, down right.
- Top passes to right, player already running to next spot.
- Important to pass in front of player
- 30 successful passes.
This exercise sounds simple but it certainly is not:
- The idea is for the player with the ball to get past a 100% giving defender in 3 dribbles.
- The scoring player stays put, misses then goes out and the defender may attack against a new person.
- The goal is for the player to give everything during this exercise.
- Here the attacker is forced to be explosive and use his whole body.
- Player A shoots from 10 different positions, with Player B rebounding and passing tight passes to Player A.
- 10x shots are made from each position.
- Both players take their turn.
- You have about 20 minutes to have both shot, if this is not the case there is a suicide.
- The goal of this exercise is to focus purely on your form.
At the end of the exercise you are asked which of the two has scored the most.
The losing player runs a suicide, should the score be forgotten, both players run a suicide.
The losing player runs a suicide, should the score be forgotten, both players run a suicide.
Warm up drill:
- 2 rows in the corner of the field, diagonally.
- The 1st player without ball goes running, the 2nd player gives baseball pass.
- Prior to the exercise, we first stretch and run a suicide.
- The ball is in the middle.
- Two persons run backwards on the starting signal to the back line, then first to get hold of the ball on the middle line.
- A 1-on-1 situation then arises here in which the person with the ball attacks and the other must defend.
- 2 groups at center line level.
- 2 players look towards goal.
- Coach throws ball towards goal.
- 2 players fight for the ball and play 1 against 1.
- 2-3 players catch the ball.
- The other players line up around the 3 point line.
- 2 balls.
- Players run regular layups.
- Coach stands under the basket and each time a player arrives, raises a specific number of fingers.
- The players must then get that number right.
- This teaches them not to look at the ball.
