This is a high pressure shooting drill designed to teach players to hold their ground and shoot under pressure.
Rules: Players must shoot from inside the key. No dribbling (once they have the ball they must shoot). Players must make a basket before they can get out of the key in this all against all drill.Once a player scores and gets out a new player must come in (start with 6 players inside the key).
You are looking for your players to be aggressive and finish with strong moves around the basket.
You will let some fouls go, but if it gets dangerous with too much contact you will have to ref the game more closely.
Look for good strength and anticipation from your players - as they get more and more used to reading where the ball is coming from the offensive rebound.
Four players standing still make every ball handler's job harder. Teach V-cuts, L-cuts and back cuts so your team gets open and punishes defenders who overplay.
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.
