Pass and Drive
Set up: 1 ball, shooting third, 4 lines of players
The ball starts with player on middle of transverse line (A).
Player from the line midway down sideline (B), drives in front of A to receive a pass.
Player B passes from middle of the third/top of the circle on a diagonal out to player standing at the corner of transverse and sideline intersection (C).
Player B joins line player C is from. Player C delivers ball to a player (D) who has driven from baseline corner to the edge of the circle. At the same time player D drove out, another player (E) from the same line drives into the circle.
Player D delivers ball to player E in the circle. Players D and E act as WA/C and GS/GA feeding in and out of circle. Player E may choose to put up a shot.
Player E delivers ball back to starting point A.
Four lines of players:
1. Middle of transverse line
2. Halfway down sideline
3. Intersecting corner of sideline and transverse
4.Bottom left corner of court.
Players need to be aware of drill movements and balance each corner as the drill progresses.

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.
