Duration: 30 minutes.

You have 1 shooter and 1 declarer.

Goal for shooter:
  • Score as much as possible from the number of attempts.
Goal for declarer:
  • Correctly point and quickly catch.

You get 10 attempts and try to score as many of them as possible. It is not about speed, but accuracy. Try to correct your shot and shoot every ball on technique.
  • Distance shot 4 meters.
  • Walk-through ball 6 meters.
  • Distance shot 3 meters -behind the basket.
  • Dodging ball to the right.
  • Penalty throws.
  • Free ball to the left.
  • Tap basket, step back and shoot.
  • Deflection ball to the left.
  • Small chances.
  • Free ball to the right.
Expansion:
  • Goal counts for 1, but if the ball hits the ground it is -1.
  • Make a 2-team and stand about 3 meters apart.
  • Start the exercise with 2 hands, then throw with 1 hand and finish by throwing with the "wrong hand.
  • When the throwing and catching is going well, the trainer names a number that the players must achieve.
    • This number must be achieved without the ball hitting the ground. If the ball does hit the ground, 1 point is deducted.
  • At the moment that one pair has reached this number, they may increase the throw distance by 1 meter. Everyone starts counting from 0 again.
  • We do this up to 5 meters, so that the ball can still be thrown without falling.
Duration: 30 minutes.
