The skinny side of the court is the side where most of the players are. It is congested and leads are not often honoured as the defenders can intercept passes in this area. In light of this, we need to pass to the 'Fat Side' (where there is a lot of space)

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.
