Player starts the move by shooting - aiming to hit the rim to create the rebound for the other two players.
When the shot goes up the defensive player will turn and box-out the offensive player attempting to get the rebound.
If defence gets the ball, it will be passed out to the coach.
If offence gets the ball, the offensive player will play 1 on 1 against the defensive player.
Make sure that defensive players make contact and compete against each other.
After each turn players rotate in a clock-wise direction:
The attacker becomes the defender, the defender becomes the shooter and the shooter joins the back of the line.
Rebounding is the least glamorous thing in basketball and one of the most decisive. It is also almost entirely a habit, which means it is entirely coachable.
Good spacing is only the start. The best modern offences teach players to attack the defence's rotations and play in a permanent 4-on-3 - here is how to coach that read.
The ball screen produces almost half of all professional offensive possessions, yet most teams still teach it as a memorised play. The modern approach trains the read - giving players a framework to decide based on what the defence does, not what the coach called.
