This drill is called 'bow' The ball is coming down the court and the black WD has the ball, because C is the closest to the ball she will sprint to the middle cone and change direction to the top cone, this way she will lose her defender and their will be no pressure on the passer. Now that the centre has the pass the WA will sprint to the top right cone, dodge and sprint to the top of the circle The aim of this drill is to create space and options when the shooters are not ready for the ball, also means alot of work from the midcourters and for the WD and GD to stand at the transverse line for a reset option.
The aim to get the mid courters to come off the circle edge and reset to give the shooters time. One midcourter will come off the cirlce edge as a reset option to the other midcourter who has the ball, as a rest option she will recieve and pass the ball straight back to the midcourter who passed the ball. This way they have another 3 seconds and are still on the circle edge

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
