Basketball drills for technique passing

This drill will help develop proper passing and shooting techniques. This drill also emphasizes communication between teammates

1. Divide the team into four squads. One team on each block and one team on each elbow. Give each team one ball.
2. The first person in each line shoots and follows his shot, passing it back to the next person in his line.
3. After rebounding the ball, the shooter returns the ball to the line they were in and rotates clockwise to the end of the next spot. Rotations are shown in the diagram.
4. All four lines work as a team and keep track of the total number of shots scored.

• Emphasize to the players that communication is very important in this drill.
• Players must make game-winning passes and their shots must also be taken at game level.
• The time limit of this exercise can be changed from five minutes to whatever you like or number of shots scored
• Also the spots on the court where the players shoot from can be varied

• 2 numbers a few meters apart
  • x number of chesst pass
  • x number of bounce passes
  • x number of overhead pass
  • x number of bounce pass out
  • x number of baseball pass
• Add if necessary
  • Defender
  • pass from the dribble

• Half have a ball, the other half do not.
• Players are mixed up.
• At whistle: make eye contact and pass to someone without ball.
• Varying :
  • Left hand and right hand dribble,
  • vary passes

Line up the children in two lines, encourage strong passes, whoever has 25 passes first sits on the ground.

We start with fake a pass, make a pass and pivot push pass, we do this without game form.

• Chest pass
• Bounce
• Push (left, right)
• Overhead

• Line up the kids in two lines,
• encourage powerful passes,
• Whoever gets 25 passes first sits on the ground.
  • Powerful passes, both chest and bounce.

• Pairs run from baseline to baseline on the right side of the field,
• meanwhile chest pass back and forth,
• distance between them is approx. 3 metres.
• Return on the left side, but then with bounce-pass.

• Overhead

Player 1 has 2 balls and dribbles to the pawn with both balls.

Player 2 cuts from the corner to the wing.

Player 1 makes a 1 hand push pass to player 2 on the wing.

With the other ball player 1 makes a cross over and shoots the ball.

Player 2 makes a jump shot.

The players practice with the overhead pass (with 2 hands, from above the head) and vary with distance players stand in a circle with 1 player in the middle.

• One player starts and throws the ball with a chest pass to the player in the middle.
• Then the first player runs after the ball to the middle.
• The player in the middle throws the ball to the next player in the circle and then runs after them etc.

The players stand in a circle and pass the ball to each other.

• They are free to choose who they throw to and which pass variant they use.
• To make the exercise more difficult more basketballs can be used.

Create a rectangular fieldTwo
teams: attackers / defenders

Players may only tap by pressing the ball on their backs

Learning point: quick passes move after your pass tight passes and quick passes

• 
  With 3 men on the back line and the middle one has the ball
• The middle passes to a man and runs after the ball
• The man in the middle passes to the man on the other side, who also runs after the ball.
• They do this while running to the basket on the other side.
• When someone is close enough to the basket, the man runs a lay-up.
• He becomes the defender and the other two attackers must try to reach each other with a long ball.
• The goal of the defender is to prevent the attackers from scoring.
• If the attackers do not manage to score, they must do 5 push-ups.

Objective:

Try to score 5 times with your group as quickly as possible.

Task:

Divide the players into 2, 3 or 4 groups so that there are max. 6 of them in a group. Give each player in each group a number from 1 to 6. Each group sits in a corner of the terrain. In the middle there are 2, 3 or 4 basketballs in hoops.

When the coach says a number, the players with that number sprint to the middle as fast as they can, take a basketball and dribble to goal. They get only 1 attempt to score. After their goal attempt, they put the balls back in the middle and rejoin their group. The first group with 5 scores wins the game.

Variations/ gradations

Make scoring easier by attaching a hoop to the ring where players can also score. A score through the hoop is then worth double points.
