Our latest Sportplan session looks at how you can develop your players ahead of the new season.
Working on these individual drills, you'll soon find your team ahead of the pack.
The drills in this session can be done as a team in training or at home, and look at developing ball handling and dribbling ability, as well as improving shooting form and consistency. There are even drills that can be done if you don't have access to a basket!
"Practice does not make perfect, only perfect practice makes perfect" - Vince Lombardi.
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.
