Basketball: Star Passing drill

Shooting under pressure is different to shooting in practice. Find out if your players are able to maintain their form in this practice and competition shooting session!

Who's going to make the final cut? It's never easy running a selection session. Use this competitive session, to help you complete the puzzle and find your best team!

Players start out in the corner on either side of the court.

Set up 2 cones in front of the players. The 1st cone 15 ft away. The 2nd cone 30 ft away. There will also be a chair 18-20 ft away from the basket.

Players dribble to the 1st cone and perform a change of direction dribble.

Player then dribbles around the 2nd cone and then dribbles at speed towards the chair.

When they reach the chair they should quickly change direction, move and attack the basket where they will finish with a lay-up.

One player starts in front with another behind, with a ball. The player in front has to hold up some fingers for the dribbling player to call out. Change roles after 1 minute.

2 team of players try to touch a nominated player with the ball.

The player that does manage to touch the player with the ball becomes the next player to try and avoid the ball from touching them.

To perfect the set shot let's start without the basket.

The hand should start cocked back, with the ball slightly in front of you.

As you shoot bend your knees, spring up and unfold your arm so that it straightens and flick your wrist to put back spin on the shot.

You should finish up on your toes.
