This plan teachers your team to mark the space (not the players) and attack the ball when they are on defence. By being positive in defence your players can put pressure on the other team, forcing the error or making the interception.
What's in the Session?
To get your players pouncing like a panther we work on your players' movement and fast hand skills, with a quick review of basic handling (read the comments below to see how much fun your team will have with these warm ups).
This plan then gets players practising driving onto the ball, reading the game and making the interception. To bring everything together we end this training with a final full-court conditioned game.
Don't step back and invite the opposition to attack when your team is on the defensive. Take the game to them with this attacking-minded defending session!

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
