Basketball drills for
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.
Everyone has a ball.
- Slalom around pylons, possibly with touching.
- Dribble with bench. Both sides a foot.
- Back line slides with ball overhead.
- Dribble to center line and push up.
- Layup.
Repeat 3 times.
- 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.
- Make sure each player has a ball.
- All players start on the baseline
- Alternate between strong and weak hand dribbling.
