Basketball drills for technique dribbling
- The teacher sets out three areas of approximately equal size with pawns.
- It is best to use the volleyball lines (see map).
- There are three sections (see map):
- Left: barons square (losers square)
- Middle: princes section (neutral section)
- Right: king of the court (winner section)
- All students stand in the middle section.
- With a signal from the teacher the game starts.
- All pupils have to try to tap/strike the ball of another pupil out of the box.
- If you succeed you move one square to the right.
- If your ball is knocked away you move up one square to the left.
- If you hit/tap someone's ball out of the box on the right you score a point.
- If your ball is knocked out of the winner's box you lose all your points.
- If your ball is knocked out of the left box nothing happens and you stay standing.
- When the teacher gives the final signal the person with the most points is king of the court and he/she has won.
Players gather on the right or left side of the center line.
The first two have a ball.
There are two catchers under the basket.
From the center line you dribble to the basket and make a lay-up.
The catcher catches the ball and passes it to the next player in line.
You do this until you have scored 15 times and then you change sides.
- Players divide along the length of the field, so they stand on a sideline.
- They are going to perform this exercise in the width of the field.
- In the middle of this field are scattered a number of pawns.
- Everyone has a ball.
Exercise:
- Players dribble to the pawns in the middle, there they hold the ball and pivot 5x.
- Then they dribble on to the other side.
- Once there, turn around and dribble with the ball as fast as possible to the starting point.
- Then do it all over again.
- Stand with the whole group in a circle in the middle of the field.
- Each player 1 ball.
- Dribble normal -hip height

Small room with 4 baskets:
- Run laps with lay-ups over all baskets.
- After whistle press up, tap, plank, jump with ball held in hands.
- After the whistle turn around and left.
- After the whistle accelerate.
- Playing from 5 spots
- After each ball is taken, an action is made to the basket.
- This can be done in a drive or with a shot.
- When the attacker is stopped by a defender, he passes the ball to the outside and cuts to the basket, via the baseline he mans a free spot in the corner.
- When a drive is initiated, the defense can either go into help defense, which always leaves someone free at the 3-point line.
- When the defense does not go into help defense, the attackers must run free in order to be able to receive the ball when the driver gets stuck.
- Important is the speed between receiving the ball and the drive.
- When the defense presses too high a cut to the basket can also be made to get free from his defender.
