No ball Working in pairs - one defender and one attacker. Attackers face away from the defender, throw and imaginary ball and turn around. Defence passively attempts to go for imaginary ball, when the attack turns around they recover to get into 3 feet. Attacker throws imaginary pass - Defenders step up to the attack and begin blocking the movement. Attackers aim to get past the defense - passive to start with and then working up to 60% intensity. Emphasis should be on defensive movement and no contacting from either player.

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.
