Basketball drills for technique dribbling
- In the speed dribble, the upper body makes an angle of less than 90 degrees with the ground.
- This is highly dependent on the speed at which the dribble is performed. The higher the speed, the smaller the angle.
- The dribbling arm is directed more forward due to the speed.
- The dribble is between hip and chest height; the ball is pushed powerfully to the ground and lands next to the shoulder axis in front of the feet.
- If there are no defenders around, the free arm has a balancing function
- If this is not the case, the dribbler will initially try to increase his speed in order to shake off the defender
- If this does not work, he can use his free arm to prevent the opponent from taking the ball.
- Obviously, this will be at the expense of speed.
- The walking speed must be in accordance with the dribbler's level; walking and dribbling must not hinder each other.
- The knees and ankles are bent strongly during the low dribble, allowing the ball to stay extra low to the ground.
- The torso and head, on the other hand, remain practically straight.
- The gaze is directed towards the opponent(s) and the rest of the field of play
- The free (slightly bent) arm is turned towards the opponent and has a protective function.
- If the situation requires, the body is brought between the opponent and the ball.
- Bringing the ball up to the attacking half.

- The teacher divides the room into two squares by placing benches on the centerline of the room.
- Then the teacher makes 2 squares with pawns to catch up the right of attack.
- During this game the rulebook is used.
- See module basketball for this guide.
- The teacher divides the students into teams of 3, possibly with a substitute.
- See the tables at the bottom of the lesson preparation for the game schedules.
- The intention is that the team that has the ball (on the map team 2 & 3) try to score.
- To be able to score, the team must first get the right of attack.
- They get this right of attack when they arrive with the ball in the area of the pawns.
- From now on the team may score.
- They do this by shooting the ball into the basket.
- The other team must try to take the ball away from them.
- When this happens, the teams swap roles and the new team with the ball has to get the right of attack and try to score.
