Two feeders, two defenders, rest attackers. Attacker drives and cuts in front of the defender, and hits the circle, where they recieve a pass. Attackers then clear out to the side and have a go at the other side.
Initially, have defenders remain stationary. Once all players have the hange of the movement, allow the defenders to start moving and putting pressure on the attackers. Make sure that feeders are passing quickly, not retaining the ball for too long. try to get them passing early, and stretching the attackers so that they leap and land right on the circle. Make sure the cut in front of the defender isnt a slow circle that brings the attacker too clost to the passer. Get them doing sharp front cuts and hard drives.

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.
