Basketball: Change direction shooting

Description

Have a chair set up about 18-20 feet away from the basket.

You can set the chair up on either side of the court.

The purpose of the drill is to teach players to go at speed, beat their defender with a dribble move then go into a shot.

Coaching points

Maintain a low dribble and keep your head up.

Make sure your players go as fast as they can - we want everyone playing at Game Speed!

Finish with a quick release jump shot, we don't want players to dip the ball down, or waste any time with their shot.

Progression:

You can vary the move at the chair and you can also change the type of shot depending on what you want to work on.
