- Each player has a ball
- The group is divided into 2 groups each at a ring
- The first player of the group attacks the first cone, where he does a change of direction (variation).
- Thus to the next cone where he repeats this until he reaches the ring on the other side, where he finishes according to the indicated variation.

- The team is divided into two groups and set up on the sideline at the height of the center line.
- 1 blue player stands ready to defend
- 2 red players are ready to attack
- When the first red player crosses the center line, the second blue player who is still standing on the sideline has to go around the cone before he can help defending.
- In the meantime, the next red player gets ready to defend.
- After scoring or capturing the ball, the 2 blue players attack.
- The 2 red attacking players line up on the sideline.
- 2 rows on baseline.
- Runs around trainer and scores close the ring on other side.
- Further and further, shoot from penalty throw line
- All players start in the middle.
- Then, (in this example blue) zigzag through the pawns ( make a crossover to the outside hand at each pawn)
- Then, a right or left lay-up is made.
- The ball is rebounded and the player walks to the mat.
- At the mat, the player rolls the ball in front of him,
- Then he/she does a head roll around the mat, then stands up
- And runs after the ball, jumping towards the ball.
- After the ball is caught, the player runs back toward the middle and joins behind 1 of the 2 rows
Note: Only do this in a safe environment where there are no obstructions from obstacles and people.
This exercise is designed to defend the cutting-in man.
- 1 passer in the center circle with defender
- 1 attacker and defender at forward positions
- Guard starts dribbling and passes to forward (lets the ball arrive, then defends full on forward)
- At that moment, the defender makes a jump-to-the-ball
- And runs along in denial --> guard cuts in from the strong side
