It's all about defence this week!
A team with a strong offence is great but when they cannot defend, it's pretty embarrassing especially when they're not winning. So, let's focus on developing and improving your players' defence techniques.
This session goes through defensive drills from start to finish. Your players will learn:
This session also incorporates drills where your players will be able to practice defensive techniques in game like-situations.
This plan is aimed at 12-15 years old, however older teenagers and adults will thoroughly benefit from this session especially if your team is having defensive issues.

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.
