Basketballexercise: break from chaos

Suitable for the following techniques: shooting rebounding

Break from chaos

Objective
  • Train the fast break in a game-like situation.
Organisation
  • Centres, Guards, and Forwards from Under 14, 6 or more players.
  • 1 ball, two baskets.
  • 2 teams with different coloured shirts.
  • Players run around the circle.
  • As soon as the coach shoots, they go for the rebound.
  • The side that secures the ball runs a fast break to the other end.
  • No shot within 5 seconds = push-ups + the other team takes the ball out from the baseline.
  • After a score or defensive rebound, the other team runs a fast break back.
Execution
  • Outlet position and pass.
  • Flyer on the other side sprints away at full speed.
  • Execute at top speed.
  • After a score, immediately take the ball in with an overhead pass.
Variation
  • Two teams alternately set up in 2 rows.
  • Players tip the ball via the board to each other (jumping and tipping as with a tip-in) and join the back of the other row.
  • On the coach's signal, the team that has the ball at that moment runs a fast break to the other basket.
  • The other team defends.
  • With an odd number of players, the larger team always attacks, creating an automatic numerical advantage situation.
