Players line up on 3 point line.Throw ball against the backboard and roll away.

Next player jumps to take the rebound and throws it against the backboard again for the next player.

Players must jump then catch and release the ball before they hit the ground.

This drill requires 3 players around the basket with one feeder/coach.

The ball is thrown up at the basket, the players will battle for the rebound.

Working in pairs one players stands under the basket with the other player on the half way line.

The player on the half way line runs towards the key to receive the ball from the other player. Once they receive the ball they should use the jump stop and then put the ball in the triple threat position before taking a shot.

The shooter than collects their ball, whether it's a rebound or a successfully completed shot, and then passes back to their partner before running back to the half way line.

Players should repeat this 5 times before swapping with their partner.

Players toss the ball up on the backboard for themselves to then catch on the rebound.

After catching the rebound players should go back up and this time try to score.

Lastly players collect their ball and pass it to the next player.
