In a designated area, using lines or cones, the white team must attempt to dodge past each defending player.
Defending players can only use sideways movements in order to prevent this.
Defenders to be light on their feet and use small, quick steps to move.
Attackers to use sharp and committed movements.
Once the white player has reached the end of the area they become a defender and the first blue player becomes the next worker (to ensure all players have a chance to practice their getting free moves).

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.
