In this transition session we work on your team's fitness - getting players to sprint from defence to offence to make the most of the fast break!
There's no point in getting your team to run end to end for conditioning purposes if you're not somehow trying to translate the skills of the game. That's why we've combined fitness with the fast break - working on your players' fitness levels and their transition skills simultaneously!
Being able to break at speed is an important skill, transitioning quickly from defence into offence - but it can be physically demanding and you need to be sure your players to last the full four quarters!
Teams that know how to run the floor and establish a set offence quickly, have a powerful weapon for scoring easy points. So come on, get your team working hard and help them score more with this fast-paced fitness and offence session.
A ready-to-run Halloween session for junior basketball: zombie tag, ball control, a ghost rondo and a pumpkin patch shooting game.

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.
