1 ON 1 CORRIDOR

SETUP: two teams, one on offense and one on defense. Players on offense form a line in a corner. Four players (X1, X2, X3 and X4) are inside of the court, on the same side of players with the ball. The other defenders are in line.

DESCRIPTION: 1 starts his dribbling staying in his "corridor" (from the sideline to the line hoop-hoop) and faces X1, X2, X3 and X4 in sequence. The four defenders play defense in their 1/4 court: X1 from the baseline to the foul line extended, X2 from the foul line extended to half court, X3 from half court to the other foul line extended, X4 in the last 1/4 court. When the action is over all defenders rotate by one position: X4 comes back in line and X5 comes in, replacing X1 position.

1C1 SPRINT
Offense n.1 with ball and the defender X1 on the baseline next each other, the offense on the side of the corner; two cones in front of them outside the three points line. The cone of the defense it is a little bit ahead to give a little advantage to the offense.

The offense start the dribble, run around the cone in front of him (from outside) and he attack the rim; the defender start to play when the offense makes the first dribble and try to recover. It is important to practice on this drill on both the sides of the court.

1VS1 BULLDOG
This drill teaches lose ball skills, aggressiveness and one-on-one skills.

The Assistant stands under the basket and has his team break into two lines (one on each side).
He pass the ball down the middle of the court and the first player from each line race to the ball.
No rules - players are encouraged to get on the floor and sell out to get the ball.
Once one player gets the ball they play one-on-one back to the basket.
If a player loses the race and gets scored on he runs a full suicide.
