The kids on the left go in for the lay-up but the kids on the left are now rebounding the shots. After the shot goes up, the shooter will go to the rebounding team and the rebounder will go to the shooting team because they now have the basketball.
Make sure the shooter does not go for the rebound as the idea is to let someone help in a situation like that in basketball. They also shouldn't go for the rebound because, once they shoot, they should be heading to the other team.

Four players standing still make every ball handler's job harder. Teach V-cuts, L-cuts and back cuts so your team gets open and punishes defenders who overplay.
Good team defence is five players guarding the ball, not five separate one-on-ones. The shell drill is where that starts, so here is how to teach help-side positioning and rotations from the first week of the season.
Rebounding is the least glamorous thing in basketball and one of the most decisive. It is also almost entirely a habit, which means it is entirely coachable.
