Basketball drills for technique warming-up

• Make 2 teams.
• Each team stands ready on one side of the field on the back line.
• Put as many balls as players on both the 3-meter lines.
• When the trainer/trainer calls GO!, everyone starts rolling the balls to the other side.
• Whoever has the fewest balls in their field after 3 minutes has won.

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.
