Community | Layup Training

DESCRIPTION

This drill we re going to focus on finsihing at the rim with a layup. Layup is one of many ways for a basketball player to score. however if ball placement on the back board is incorrect and the movement leading up to it is wrong then one of easiest ways to score points becomes much harder. so this drill we will really be focusing on ball placement and the steps leading up to it to ensure its success. In this drill the player will start in between the green cones. The coach will pass the ball to them and player will proceed to dribble towards the ring and finishing at the ring with with a layup. the player will then proceed to wrap around to other green cones and the action will be repeated. We will repeat this until the player feels comfortable finishing on both sides on the ring. Regression: Getting the players to stand just off to the left or right of the ring at the base of it and just taking one step and laying up. Focusing on ball placement of theball against the backboard to ensure the success of the shot. Progression: The coach, after passing the ball, applying pressure to the player to recreate an in game situation forcing the player to finish with contact or pressure on the them.
