Basketball: Set shot technique - No basket

As someone who is new to coaching this site was just what I needed,...
Phil

DESCRIPTION

To perfect the set shot let's start without the basket.

The hand should start cocked back, with the ball slightly in front of you.

As you shoot bend your knees, spring up and unfold your arm so that it straightens and flick your wrist to put back spin on the shot.

You should finish up on your toes.

COACHING POINTS

Players shoot the ball straight up and then catch their own shot, ready to repeat.

Ensure players have enough space when practising this skill.
