Skill 2 - Zig Zag Dribbling
SET-UP: Blue markers represent cones, Orange markers = pizzas.
Set up the drill like in the image.
How the drill works:
Players dribble through the two cones in front of them, dribbles around the top cones, comes back and dribbles through the two cones again, then gives the ball to the next players in line.
GOAL - Not to hit the cone with the basketball
VARIATIONS:
- Start with right hand only
- Left hand only
- Crossovers
- 2-ball dribbling through the cones
Each variation goes for 2-3 minutes.
Talent wins games, but chemistry wins championships. Building a positive team culture, establishing shared values, and developing trust creates teams that exceed the sum of their parts.
Getting to the rim is only half the battle. Converting against shot blockers and help defenders requires a toolkit of creative finishes. The best scorers have multiple ways to score at the basket.
Traditional positions are becoming obsolete. Modern basketball rewards versatile players who can handle, pass, shoot, and defend across multiple positions. Developing these skills creates valuable, adaptable players.
