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.

Blue player 1 starts with the ball in their hand on the baseline on the left hand side of the key. They then roll the ball towards red player 1 and can pick it up once its gone past the free throw line.

Red player 1 must run as soon as the ball is thrown to behind the backboard before having a 1 v 1. Roles are reversed once the game is over.

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.

Split into 2 lines and have a line on either side of the court.

One player in the middle with a basketball.

The player in the middle will pass to the 1st player in one of the lines. After the pass is made that player will go and defender the receiver of the pass.

They will play 1v1. Only 1 shot is allowed.

Once a shot has been taken the ball will be passed to the opposite line where the offensive player will become the defender.
