Basketball Drills

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).

Players line up 5-8 feet away from the basket standing on the right or left side. The player with the ball will quick stop into their shot and shoot a power move off the backboard. The player who shot will collect their rebound and then pass the ball to the next player.

2 players will attack 1 defender. After a shot has been taken all 3 players become offence and 2 defenders will run in to play a 3v2 at the other end. Once a shot has been taken at that end. The 2 defenders become offence and 1 defender will run in at the other end. This is a continuous drill, where each end the same thing will happen each time.

Player 2 makes an L shaped cut and then sprints to receive the ball from player 1, who then catches the ball, pivots and shoots.

Players take it in turn to v cut / flash across the lane to the low post area. Upon arriving, post up correctly and receive pass from passer. Player will then perform the designated move. Inside pivot - jump shot. Front pivot, pump fake, step through.

Set players up as shown in video clip. When the coach says 'GO' both players will start. Offence only gets 1 shot.

White 2 gets in space to recieve a pass from White 1 Upon receiving ball White 1 has three bounces and five seconds to try to score. Alternate possession between players. The winner is the first to 5. Blue 2 will pass to white 3 when they get open.

Have cones set up as shown in the image. Players will start at the 1st cone and defensive slide from cone to cone. Once the player gets their outside foot to the cone the player will push off of that foot and change direction.

Player 1 passes the ball to player 2 and makes a V cut run, running towards the elbow of the free throw line before cutting in to meet the pass. When player one receives the pass from they shoot from where they caught the ball. If they miss they may follow up with a rebound before playing an outlet pass to player 2 who then passes the ball back into the line of players before joining the back of the queue. Player 1 now takes player 2's role and the dril continues.

In pairs pass moving down the court to the halfcourt line and back. When the play with the ball reaches the 3 point line make a bounce pass into the path of the other player. Receiving player shoots using a layup.

Blue player 1 starts with the ball in their hand on the baseline on the left hand side of the key. They then roll the ball towards red player 1 and can pick it up once its gone past the free throw line. Red player 1 must run as soon as the ball is thrown to behind the backboard before having a 1 v 1. Roles are reversed once the game is over.

All players have a ball each. The catchers have to try and touch one of the players without bibs. If they succeed in doing so then that person has to stand still and put their ball on their head.

Player 1 dribbles the ball with their right hand, change to the left and then go for a lay up shot. Player 2 starts with the left hand, then changes to the right before attempting a lay up.

The coach or a teammate places the ball on the floor. Facing away from the basket, player 1 (attacker) stands in front of player 2 (defender). Player 1 then picks up the ball and attempts to get into position to shoot.

Players will jump as high as the can on 1 leg, after they land they will bend down touching the floor, with the non jumping leg being extended behind. Once they player is in that position they will explode up and jump off that leg again.

As above, but one ball passes under one of your legs.
