3 Attacking players - attacker one, sets up as a thrower and throws the ball to 1 and then to 2. (starting off in a patterned order, 1,2,1,2... etc) - The defener must be light and fast on their feet and read the pass before driving for the intercept, with the correct timing - The thrower (3rd attacker) shpuld use a variety of passes - once the defender is comfortable and successful at intercepting, the thrower may like to change it up and throw to either 1 or 2, making the defedner think !
Defenders - fast feet, light on toes, eyes up - dont over run if they dont gain the intercept, be ready for the next 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.
