- After the lay-up, they take their own rebound and give an outlet pass to the waiting player on the sideline
- Then they join the sideline, at the level of the free throw line
- Lay-up, bob cousy, power lay-up, lay-back, jump stop
- Progression:

- Retrieve ball in the middle and from there dribble and lay-up through the middle
- Add 2 players defending passively at the three-point line
- Add 2 players actively defending at the three-point line
- 2 players defending actively
- Regression:

- Half court
- Ball is in the middle of the Bucket.
- The defenders stand with their heels on the edge of the Bucket and the attackers stand behind the three-point line.
- When the coach calls "Go," the defenders provide good close out and the attackers go out of their way to get the ball.
- If the attackers manage to grab the ball within 5 seconds the defending side must do 5 push ups.
- After 5 turns of attack/defense.
- Run layups from the baseline.
- One side catches the ball and the other side makes a layup.

- Power lay-up over left and right.
- Get under the board and finish over left and right.
- Catch and Shoot.
All variations 15 hit over each side.
- The players of the offensive side all make a board pass.
- The last one gives an outlet pass to the pointgeard.
- There are 3 defenders on the attacking side.
- 2 defenders stand on the sideline near the center line, as soon as the last attacker crosses the center line they may join the defense.
- If the attacking team scores, the defending team makes board passes and attacks.
- If the attacking side does not score then 10 push ups for the attacking side.
- Blue passes the ball against the board and grabs the rebound and then attempts an outlet pass to Red.
- White tries to prevent the outlet pass.
- After a successful outlet pass, Red passes the ball to Orange.
Rollover:
- Orange becomes Blue
- Blue becomes White
- White becomes Red
- Red becomes Orange
- Make pairs.
- Player under the basket passes to the player on the free-throw line.
- The attacker has an advantage in time and can shoot freely.
- If the attacker scores or he has the offensive rebound he stays shooter, if the defender has the rebound the players switch positions.
- Who has the most scores after 3 minutes?
- Losers 10 push ups
- 2 teams.
- Everyone a ball
- Shooting from 7 positions.
- When you have shot you go for your own Rebound, if you have caught your Rebound without the ball touching the ground you may score again immediately.
- 15 touches per position per team.
- So you can score 2 points at a time.
- Half Court shot, 1 hit no Rebound.
- Losing side receives a gift :)
A game is played on a half court.
- If the defense gains possession of the ball, the team must first score via a Quick break on the other basket with no defense.
- After scoring, this team remains on offense at half court.
- The team that first has 5 scores via a Quick break wins and the losers get to run 2 whole suicides.

- 3 pylons in between the 3pt line and center line.
- Coach shoots at the basket and the 3 players fight for the rebound.
