In pairs, one thrower, one worker. Each player is to do each lead 8-10 times, then swap over. From left to right the drives are: 1. Stright sprint 2. Sprint, stop, sprint 3. Jog, sprint (change of pace) 4. Sprint up then drop back Can add a defender in but attacker needs to mix up the type of lead
Strong hard drives to thrower Run onto ball - don't wait for it to come to you

in more ways than one
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.
