This session looks at how you can maintain your teams' match fitness.
This session aims to push your players - both physically and mentally, as well as increasing their individual levels of fitness and stamina. It will also work on continuing to build team chemistry - with drills that encourage communication, team-work and support.
Developing basketball skills
Ensure your players' ball handling, movement and footwork continue to develop with a combination of shooting drills, fast-paced mini-games and fitness running.
Use this session to put smiles on your players' faces as they practice dribbling skills to beat opposition players, develop their defensive ability and transition into attack and driving toward the hoop .
Keep your season going the way you started - use this session to motivate everyone to work hard and give maximum effort for the duration of the session.
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.
The closeout is the most repeated defensive action in modern basketball. With fouls per game climbing in the 2025-26 season, coaches must teach defenders to contest the three without surrendering the drive or putting shooters on the line.
