Have the players get into pairs. One player starts with the ball and drops, places, or throws the ball at random to their partner. The player collecting the ball needs to react as quickly as possible to gather the ball either before it bounces or after only 1 bounce. After 10, players will swap over so that the passer is now reacting to the ball.
The aim of this drill is to get the players alert and reacting quickly to the ball and for moving in a small space.

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.
