Basketball: Box 1 - Out of Bounds Play

Very useful format and descriptions of drills. I am using Sportplan...
Tony, Coach

DESCRIPTION

  1. The player on the elbow closest to the ball (ballside) will set a downscreen for the player on the block to sprint to the three point line to receive the pass from the inbounder.
  2. Two players weakside simply space out to the three point line.

COACHING POINTS

  • Inbounder should never rush to get the ball off the referee on the baseline. 
  • 4 players on court need to set up in a box using both low blocks and elbow positions.
  • Inbounder will slap the ball when he has it off the referee, sees that everyone is in position and then is ready to initiate movement. 
  • Every movement needs to be done at a game speed giving the impression it is a scoring movement.
  • Timing is key

Ball Movement - Chest Pass | Passing

Ball Movement - Chest Pass:

Player 1 rolls the ball out to player 2, who in turn picks the ball up and gives a bounce pass to player 3 (in one action). Player 1 then goes behind player 4 and player 2 goes behind player 3 so the practice keeps going.

A progression would be to introduce a chest pass
