Set up: 8+ players, about a third area.
Coach can determine what movement they do e.g. run, skip, hop.
You could use this with young players as an entry level drill to the classic 'four corners' or 'cut the cabbage drill' so they get used to learning where to run.
Get players to bring the square bigger and smaller whilst still running through the drill. Bring in two balls and progress to 'cut the cabbage'.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
