Split the group into 2 groups. Each group will create 2 lines (one with a ball one without). at opposite ends in opposite corners of the court. one group will do chest passes while shuffling down the court. The other group will do 1 on 1 where player with the ball will be encouraged to weave down the court and the defender will be encouraged to shuffle down the court keeping the player with the ball in front of them.
Passing
- dont cross your legs while shuffling
- knees bent
- give your team mate a target (chest)
- make strong passes, finish with thumbs pointing down
1 on 1
Defender to play passive and concentrate on shuffles and keeping the attacking player in front of them
Attacker to weave (zig-zag)down the court
switch hands dribbling down the court
opposite arm up to defend the ball
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.
