Basketball: Two man - Close to basket shooting

Develop a fundamentally sound power forward! Use this session to work on all the skills required for a Power Forward, a critical position for any successful basketball team!

Players will be stood underneath the basket.

One player will step out in front of the basket and shoot a jump hook.

Once the shot has been taken that player will get the rebound and pass the ball to the next player. This is a continuous drill and can be stopped or changed when you want the player to shoot with a different hand.

Player from the left (1) runs in the direction of the basket (cuts in) to receive the passhe cone from the middle player (2 )

At the same time the player on the right (3) has time his/her run to be able to receive the pass from player 1 at the 2nd cone nearer the basket.

After receiving the ball the player has to take a shot as soon as possible.

The coach shoots and the player must try and get to the rebound by dodging through the cones. Once the player reaches the rebound they can either try and score or turn and pass to the coach

Have players and cones set up as shown in the video. The player with the ball will hold it in the middle of their chest.

Going for 30 seconds the defensive player must keep their head in line with the ball by staying low and using a defensive slide.

The player with the ball can move how they like side to side between the cones.
