1 ON 1 AWAY FROM THE BALL

SETUP: X1 has the ball at low post. Players 1 and 2 are on guards.

GOAL: V cuts, 1 on 1 on the ball, anticipate the player without the ball.

DESCRIPTION: X1 passes the ball to 1 and follows to play defense. 1 passes to 2 and V-cuts to get open and receive the pass back: 2 can move on his spot to find a good passing lane. 1 attacks the basket as soon as he catches the ball from 2.

GOAL: offensive player wins if he scores a basket, if he is fouled, or if he gets the rebound. Defensive player wins if he steals the ball, if he gets the rebound, if the ball goes out of bounds. Who wins the first action plays offense again the next one.

TIP: To have a more realistic drill, you can limit the number of dribbles.

CORRECTIONS:
DEFENSE: don’t let the offense get the pass back easily. Anticipate the pass. As soon as offense catches the ball, recover in a correct "wall" position on the ball.

OFFENSE: be ready to catch the ball and shoot or drive immediately.

FULL COURT PASSING 3 ON 2 DRILL

SETUP: two players with the ball at elbows, 3 players on the baseline.

GOAL: passing, overload play.

DESCRIPTION: X1 and X2 run the court passing the ball each other, no dribble. 1, 2 and 3 run after them and try to steal the ball. On the way back, 1, 2 and 3 are on offense, X1 and X2 on defense. The drill goes on until players score 2 baskets.
