Split into teams of 6-10 (even number where possible). Stand shoulder to shoulder in two lines facing each other from the baseline up court. Ball starts on the baseline and is thrown up the rows in a zig zag. Once you have passed the ball you run to the other end of the line. Aim: to get the ball from one baseline to the other.

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.
