Basketballexercises for technique passing

• 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.

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

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.

• 
  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.

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.

Goal:

• shot from the elbow
• outlet pass after score
• overhead pass from low post to elbow

Organization:

• after shot rebound and immediately step over the back line and take the ball
• always chase your ball and take the next position
• set a goal; e.g. 30 shots.

Teaching Points:

• in the last step bring the ball above your head and turn your face towards the pitch
• Tight overhead pass to the outlet
• ask high for the ball
• Pass the ball in the shot hand

Variations:

• counterclockwise and clockwise
• Fill up waiting time at the forward position with fake passes
• The other way round: after scoring, pass to the elbow and shoot from the corner

• Guards + Forwards + Centers
