This drill works on fast feet, agility and footwork.
Players start off with their own space on the court.
On the coach's first whistle players sprint on the spot, standing with wide feet and their arms outstretched as if defending.
Players sprint on the spot, with minimal leg raise - emphasis on fast feet.
Players cease to exercise on coach's second whistle.
Coach should get the players to exercise for however long they think is appropriate.
Look for good defensive positioning, feet shoulder width apart, bend knees and dont cross feet when sliding.

Talent wins games, but chemistry wins championships. Building a positive team culture, establishing shared values, and developing trust creates teams that exceed the sum of their parts.
Getting to the rim is only half the battle. Converting against shot blockers and help defenders requires a toolkit of creative finishes. The best scorers have multiple ways to score at the basket.
Traditional positions are becoming obsolete. Modern basketball rewards versatile players who can handle, pass, shoot, and defend across multiple positions. Developing these skills creates valuable, adaptable players.
