Basketball drills for technique shooting

  • 2 rows and 1 outlet standing slightly lower (on side of row with ball)
  • Player without ball makes in/out v-cut and comes up to free throw line (asking for the ball)
  • Player in 2nd row passes and goes to rebound passes to outlet on the other side and connects
  • Player who shot the ball becomes outlet at the other end
When the ball bounces far from the hoop (2 options, no matter which player joins the row with the ball)

Row on the halfway line without the ball
Line up on baseline (corner of sideline) with ball
  • Player cuts in at pace.
  • Gets ball (bounce pass, not dribble. If you get pass too early you make a dribble).

  • Station 1. (Basket 1)
    • 3x2 play from the center line without dribbling (only passing, free running, pivoting)
  • Station 2. (basket 2)
    • 1x1 play (substitution, attacker becomes defender, occasionally change the order to get different match-ups, 1-shot attempt or under time pressure to keep up the momentum)

    • Lift the pylon with the left, dribble with the right (throw the pylon, catch it with the other hand)
    • Left/right and touch pylon (timer, counting) - hand that releases the ball must touch pylon (low position, defend the ball)
    • 2 pawns, dribble left, touch right
    • 2 cones (8 dribble with 1 hand)
  • Station 5 dribbling skills. (row of pawns)
