Players walk along the benches to improve balance and co-ordination, these are vital skills that will be very important when coming down from a jump shot.

Players can start to add variety to the drill through a number of different styles.

1. Without a ball.

2. Whilst holding a ball, make a full turn in the middle of each bench.

3. With a ball in one outstretched hand.

4. Whilst circling the ball around their waist.
