    • Ball is with the proposal player in the right row.
    • First player in left row runs to the forward.
    • Player with ball passes ball to player in left row.
    • Player in left row makes a jump stop.
    • Player in right row touches sideline at free throw line and makes a cut to the basket.
    • Player with ball passes to other player at correct time (other player asks for ball).
    • Player right row makes layup. (Pay attention to correct two-count rhythm)
    • Player in left row catches the ball (active rebound!) and passes to the player in the corner. (no ball on the ground!)
    • Player in the corner passes ball to next player in line.
    • Catcher becomes player in the corner.

  • Points of Attention:
    • Pay attention to correct two-count rhythm.
    • Pay attention to correct hand. (left lay-up with left hand)
    • Make sure that tight passes are made, in front of the man (so that the receiving player does not have to slow down in her movement to the basket).

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.




Everyone has a ball.
  • Slalom around pylons, possibly with touching.
  • Dribble with bench. Both sides a foot.
  • Back line slides with ball overhead.
  • Dribble to center line and push up.
  • Layup.

  • The player starts at the post next to the bucket.
  • Player dribbles to the basket
  • Variations:
    • The player stops on two feet = jumpshot
    • The player starts the two-count rhythm = lay-up
      • From the right side: first right foot, drop with left foot.
      • From the left side: first with left foot, then with right foot.
  • The player picks up his own rebound and dribbles around the pole.
  • The player zigzags through the posts.
  • The player then rejoins the line near the basket.
When there is a large group, this exercise can be done on both sides of the field.
