In this session we work on your players' confidence in 1 vs 1 situation, when they're bearing down on the opposition's basket, trying to find that extra bit of space to squeeze past and shoot!
By working on their Footwork and Technique when attacking the basket you can look to encourage your players to more positive and aggressive when making their move to carry the ball forwards.
By concentrating on the small details such as footwork, a low centre of gravity when turning and making the cut and generally practicing these skills at full game speed you can really give your players the chance to practice their attacking drives and see what works (and what doesn't) when taking on their man.
Show your players how to take their chances and react to the defender's movements when driving into space in the offensive end.
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.
