Drill 5 This is a movement and passing drill. It focusses on passing and catching while tired from the game. Players F and A are stationary. Player D starts with the ball and passes to the player diagonally opposite (F). Player D then procedes to run straight across the court to adjacent to F to recieve a short pass. They then pivot, and pass back to A. The drill then repeats as D runs back across the court to recieve a short pass from A. Thsi drill is supposed to be completed at medium to high intensity (75%-90%) effort. It is a rotating drill where the running player does 10-15 lengths before swapping into a passing position. Thsi is their rest phase. The drill is completed 2x through.

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.
