This drill is good for quick thinking passes. In groups of 4 (5 if you want to add a defender) with 2 balls. 3 players stand in a row 2 of those players have a ball. The 4th person stands in front of other players. one player throws the ball to person 4 then person 4 throws to a different free player. Player 4 can`t throw back to the same player who just threw the ball. then the second player with the ball does the same.

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.
