Basketball drills for technique shooting
- Two men around the bucket for defense
- Three attackers:
- Attacker 1 passes the ball to attacker 2
- All three attackers pass the ball around until one sees a gap and can get into the bucket
- He adjusts the ball and tries to score
- Up to 5 points, then switch roles and the attacker who has scored least stays in the attack.
- The players divide themselves over 2 or 3 lines (depending on the number of players), 1 rebounder is under the ring,
- 1 ball per line.
- The first player takes the shot -> rebounder takes the ball (without colliding on the ground) and passes to the person standing in the line of the shooter.
- The person who has taken the shot prepares for the rebound of the next shooter.
- Place the ball at a pilon on 1/3 of the square
- At the start signal you run to the pilon, grab the ball and dribble on.
- You have to dribble or stand still within 2 steps.
- Dribble to the next basket, score and catch the ball
Requirements:
- Stopping two feet together, pivoting, lay-up and jumpshot must be known
Aim:
- When passing, jump towards the ball with feet coming down correctly to start the next movement. (pivoting, start dribble)
Organization:
1. Coach gives passes from position 1, alternating left and right from under the basket. Give passes where jump-to-the-ball applies.
2. Player starts under the basket (2 groups of 5 to 6 players, of which two/group have a ball) ==> fast; explosive exercise.
3. Run to cone under the basket and quickly pushes himself away towards the cone at spot 2 or 3.
4. Makes movement from the cone to the ball to get the pass and perform a jump-to-the-ball.
5. After getting the ball pivot and attack towards the basket (first lay-up, then shot)
6. After finishing, change sides and pass the ball
Teaching points:
- Rapid explosive movement when running free
- correct ball acceptance (show hands) and foot placement
- pivoting and fast attacks without running errors
- Three rows.
- Shoot and join at the back of the next row.
- Hurry up, watch where you're going.
- Everybody catch a ball, catch your own ball and join the back of the next row.
- Variations:
- Up to the twenty or thirty.
- Until everyone has scored ten times.
- A row with ball at the head of the bucket.
- A row behind the free throw line on the right.
- Player on the head passes the ball to the forward on the side.
- The forward makes a strong drive to the triangle (defender), passes the ball out to the forward on weakside.
- The forward makes a strong drive to the basket.
- The player in front and the other forward who has passed go for the rebound.
- A line with the ball at the head of the bucket.
- A row behind the free throw line on the right.
- A row of the same but on the left.
- Centers + Guards + Forwards
- Starting from U14
- 6 or more players
- 1 ball
- two baskets
Requirements:
- Mastering the basics of a break
Aim:
- break training in a competitive situation
Organization:
- 2 teams with different shirt colors
- the players all run around the circle
- as soon as the coach shoots they're gonna rebound
- the team that captures the ball runs a break on the other side (no shot within 5 seconds = push up + take out other team on the back line)
- after score or defensive rebound the other team runs a break back
Teaching Points:
- outlet position and pass
- flyer on the other side at full speed away
- execute at top speed
- After score, take in position immediately with overhead pass
Variation:
- two teams arranged alternately in 2 rows
- the players tip the ball to each other via the board (jumping and tipping like a tip in)
- and connect to the back of the other row
- at the signal of the coach, the team that is currently picking up the ball runs a break
- on the other basket
- the other team defends
- (with an odd number, the largest team always attacks and there is automatically an excess situation)
- Two rows at the centerline
- The first two have a ball - Right
- From the center line you dribble to the basket:
- Layup (15x hit in a row, a player under the basket catches the ball and counts, play again if the player didn't count)
- Shots from bucket (7 in a row)
- The player under the basket starts when the dribbler starts.
- Coach goes further and further back.
- players start at the level of the middle line, 3 rows
- middle player has the ball
- Player A takes a shot at goal and player B catches.
- Player B takes a shot at goal and player A catches.
- For 1 minute and goals scored is the number of total points.
- Player is explained shooting technique.
- Practicing over distance on the field.
- Pay attention to technique and the curve of the ball. After 10 practice throws in the field, the first player slides into the ring.
- 1 Player stands in the first hoop and shoots. If it's in, it's 1 point, player moves to the second hoop and shoots , 2 points if it's scored.
- If it's not scored, then move to 1 hoop closer. If it's scored, move to the 3rd hoop.
- If you score the 3rd hoop, you get 3 points and you may stay and shoot again.
- Max score is: 1-2-3-3-3-3-3-3=27 points.
- Under the basket is a teammate who rebounds and passes the ball back to the shooter.
- After 10 attempts, shooter and rebounder change positions. 10 attempts again
- Remember your score.
- After one session (10 throws each) these players go to the field to practice and move up the line.
- When everyone has finished, compare scores.
- Points of attention: shooting technique, rebound action, (shooter ask for the ball) and passing technique.
