In this drill, you can use the technique of both passings chest pass and bounce pass.
The players all stand in a circle, pass the ball to opposite players (F to F) then follow they pass, this is a quick game.
I'd start with doing one pass at the beginning eg, chest pass. then swap to bounce pass then both.
A few rules you can include:
No passing to the player next to you.
Make sure all players get a pass.
Can't do the same pass in a row for would be (chest pass, bounce pass, chest pass) and can make someone do a fortit if they make a mistake, making it into a bit of compeition.
Make sure players are spread out
Add in two balls if things become easy
Incourage players and praise them
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.
Rebounding is the least glamorous thing in basketball and one of the most decisive. It is also almost entirely a habit, which means it is entirely coachable.
Good spacing is only the start. The best modern offences teach players to attack the defence's rotations and play in a permanent 4-on-3 - here is how to coach that read.
