- Players begin lined up at first cone, one player is at the baseline- First player dodges the two cones then makes a straight sprint lead to the green cone where they receive a pass.- The player takes a shot and both players go for the rebound.- The shooter then takes position at the baseline while the defender joins the back of the line. TIPS- Make sure both players are jumping and running for the rebounds- Shooting with correct technique- Not stepping when catching the ball- Actually sprinting not jogging or running.

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.
