In between shooting drills when changing from one to the other, shoot 10 free throws.
Try to shoot at least 50 a day.
Free throws should be unique to each individual and be very regimented.
The same routine should be used every shoot.
Bounce the ball once, twice or three times or not at all before taking the shot but make sure it the same way each time.
Hands should be placed on the ball in exactly the same place and keep the movement to the starting point to a bear minimum.
Get a good knee bend and power the shot with the legs.
Co-ordinate the movement of the legs with the movement of the arms and have good consistent wrist action.
Come up onto your toes and hold the follow through until the ball is through the net.
Take your time concentrate and take every shot.
Good team defence is five players guarding the ball, not five separate one-on-ones. The shell drill is where that starts, so here is how to teach help-side positioning and rotations from the first week of the season.
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.
