Basketball: 1 v 1

2 lines on the baseline, with the coach in the middle.

The coach will roll the ball down the middle of the court.

Both players will run and dive on the ball. The player that gets the ball is on offence and the other player on defence.

They will attack the basket from the side they came from.

First player to score wins.

The defender (red player 1) rolls the ball out for the attacker to pick up and then play a 1 v 1 against them.

The rules of the practice are that the attacker is only allowed three attacking dribbles before the point is dead.

Set up two lines, one for the for the defending players (red) and the other for the attacking players (blue) who have one ball.

When the coach blows their whistle both players run around their respective cones (shown in diagram).

After the blue player has made their way around the cone another player in the offensive players' line passes the ball to them.

After they've run round the cones players play out the 1 vs 1.

2 players will attack 1 defender. After a shot has been taken all 3 players become offence and 2 defenders will run in to play a 3v2 at the other end.

Once a shot has been taken at that end. The 2 defenders become offence and 1 defender will run in at the other end.

This is a continuous drill, where each end the same thing will happen each time.
