3 Player Pass and Move Drill:

Players work in groups of 3, with one ball per group.

The ball starts on the side with two players. The first player in the line passes to the opposite side and then follows their own pass. The receiving player catches the ball and then also passes and follows their own pass.

Drill continues. Players must move laterally from one end of the court to the other while performing this skill.

Footwork and Movement

3 Man Motion Drill (ii):

1 passes to 2. p1 v-cut and replace yourself. 2 pass back to 1. 2 & 3 back cut.
1 pass to 2 or 3. Rebound & rotate anti-clockwise.

Shooting

1-2-3 and rebound:

Player 1 starts the move by passing the ball to player 2. Just as the first pass is being made player 3 runs diagonally in court in preparation to receive the ball from player 2.

Player 2 passes the ball to player 3 who has a shot from the edge of the key.

Meanwhile player 1 should have run up court and is positioned ready to receive the rebound if player 3's shot misses.
