Divide the group into 2 with a coach in each group. Version 1: have the players make two rows facing the coach (the square). Place one cone for each row. Player 1 is to run to the cone, plant their feet, catch the ball from the coach, pivot. Player 2 is to run to their cone, plant feet, catch the ball from player 1, pivot and throw back to the coach. Version 2: place a cone outside of the circle and another next to the hoop. The player is to run to the first cone then to the cone at the hoop; plant their feet, catch the ball from the coach, pivot and shoot. You can add a defender if your players are very good.

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.
