Basketball: Right hand dribble

Very useful format and descriptions of drills. I am using Sportplan...

Tony, Coach

DESCRIPTION

Keep feet shoulder width apart, weight slightly over the right foot. You should bounce the ball outside of the right foot. The hand should absorb some of the energy of the ball striking it by moving slightly on impact, and returning to the starting position whilst the ball is still in contact with the ball.
NOTE: The hand should remain on the top of the ball only to prevent carrying.
