Basketball drills for technique dribbling

For U12 first explain well which lines are used.
Standard killer with line touching, executing with ball and different commands.

• Slowly build up speed as a warming up,
• Possibly let a player determine what the assignments are.
• Do take a rest now and then.

Tasks:

• Left to go, right back
• Left/right (cross)
• Backwards (2 times left, 2 times right)
• Put the ball down (under ball back, pick up ball back and next line)
• With press-ups (2x on the line), jumping, abs ect.

Depending on the size of the group choose an area (bucket for max 6)

• Everyone a ball, dribble and tap the ball away from other players.
• Ball away means pushing into the centre circle and back again.
• If necessary, make it difficult with a second dribble (keep the ball alive!)

Games with different assignments/restrictions.
Pay attention to free running, not blind dribbling, good passing, pivoting, talking.

• 3x3 without dribbling (1 basket)
• with max 2 dribbles
• Both teams lie on the back line (on stomach),
• trainer puts ball in play via shot or bounce (quickly choose position, who will attack?)
• just play to the 10 (end game)

Divide the group into pairs.

Passing to the other side:

• First 2-groups fit around the whole field.
• 3 meter distance, no running
• Variant: at the halfway line:
  • Player on the inside dribbles to the head of the bucket and passes to the player on the outside who scores with lay-up/shot.
• Player who has passed runs to the other sideline and receives outlet, passes back to the center line and again shot/layup
• Left and right side

Important that they do not run during the pass and that the players change (inside and outside).

Players start at the bottom of the ring in 2 lines.

1) On the right side of the ring, players make a zig-zag run with the ball, changing direction at each cone (cross, behind the back, through the legs and spin move).

• Once at the center line, the player dribbles with the left hand towards the cones #1 here you do a backup dribble and go with a cross-over past the cones and finish with a lay-up.

2) On the left side of the ring, players do a short/explosive zig-zag and sprint from the last pawn to the center line.

• Once at the center line, they dribble right-handed to cones #2, here they do a backup dribble and crossover past the cones and finish with lay-up.

• At cones #1 and #2 you can vary with crossover, behind the back, through the legs and spin move
• Finish with lay-up or short distance shot
  
  

• Everyone a ball, line up in a large circle.
• Trainer shows the exercise, players follow:
  • Spread out and roll the ball in an 8-shape between the legs.
  • Roll the ball around your waist, head legs (change direction)
  • Dribble with left, right, change hands.
  • let the whole group dribble at the same time (rhythm exercise, all in rhythm!)
  • dribble between your legs
  • dribble behind your back
  • Shot movement upwards (extend arm, point, catch)
  • Spread position (move the ball in an 8-shape without touching the ground)

1. Everyone has a ball
   • 10x high/10x middle/10x low -> focus on the power on the ball and dribbling with the fingertips
   • 10x right 2 dribbles -> crosscross (step on the cross)
   • 10x left 2 dribbles -> crosscross (step on the cross)
   • 10x right 2 dribbles -> Between (step)
   • 10x left 2 dribbles -> Between (step)
   • 10x right 2 dribbles -> Behind (step)
   • 10x left 2 dribbles -> Behind (step)
   • 5x right 2 dribbles -> cross/between/behind
   • 5x left 2 dribbles -> cross/between/behind
2. Per 2, 1 person has 2 balls
   • 2 dribbles with both balls -> pass one ball to the other player and do the above exercises but dynamically (walk to the other side of the field)
   • different variations possible: cross, between and behind
3. Per 2, 1 ball
   • The person carrying out the exercise receives the ball and does the exercise 'cross/between/behind' once and then gives the pass back.
   • The person carrying out the exercise receives the ball and does the exercise "cross/between/behind" 2x and then returns the pass
   • the performer receives the ball and does the exercise "cross/between/behind" 3x and gives back the pass
   • the performer receives the ball and does the exercise "cross/between/behind" 4x and gives back the pass
   • the performer receives the ball and does the exercise "cross/between/behind" 5x and gives back the pass
   • the performer receives the ball and does the cross/between/behind exercise 4x, and then returns the pass
   • the performer receives the ball and does the cross/between/behind exercise 3 times, and then gives back the pass
   • the performer receives the ball and does the exercise "cross/between/behind" 2x and gives back the pass
   • the performer receives the ball and does the exercise "cross/between/behind" 1x and gives back the pass

• Player 1 dribbles while zigzagging between the pillars.
• At the end you dribble back.
• Back at the start, grab the ball and make a maximum of 2 passes.
• During the last 2 passes, player 2 takes over the ball and dribbles the course.
• Repeat for 1 minute

• Warming-up for U16, where the focus is mainly on warming up in combination with a bit of ballhandling.

• 2 or more players have the ball and walk/dribble through each other
• On signal, the person with the ball passes to the first person he/she makes eye contact with
• repeat maximum 8 times

• Parcour on the right side of the field.
• obstacles
• 1 dribble, sit down while dribbling and stand up while dribbling
• 2) Dribble, dribble backwards and accelerate forward to the next pylon.
• 3) Cross the legs 3 times, change legs.
• 4) Switch in any way from left to right. Pass from backline to row A under the basket.
• Row A gets the ball from the person who finishes the course.
• Row B stands on free throw line.
• B receives pass from A and fills the lane on the right side of the court.
• A follows and becomes trailer, to pilon and pass from B and to baset.
  
  

• Parcours cris-cros over the field with dribble,
• cross-over,
• high and low dribble
