Spot shooting (in pairs) Set out five cones around the basket. Player must shoot from one and then move to the next cone and continue shooting for 1 minute ( players must not shoot from same spot twice in a row). The player's partner will be rebounding for them. After 1 minute they swap roles. Rebounder keeps score. (remember 1 basket = 2 points)
Good team defence is five players guarding the ball, not five separate one-on-ones. The shell drill is where that starts, so here is how to teach help-side positioning and rotations from the first week of the season.
Rebounding is the least glamorous thing in basketball and one of the most decisive. It is also almost entirely a habit, which means it is entirely coachable.
Good spacing is only the start. The best modern offences teach players to attack the defence's rotations and play in a permanent 4-on-3 - here is how to coach that read.
