Ray Allen shooting drill

Great tool for bringing focus to practices. Began using it last year...
Eric, Coach

DESCRIPTION

The Ray Allen shooting drill is a great drill that you can use for a shooting warm up or to end the workout in a fun, competitive manner. It can easily be adapted for beginners and pros. Check out the instructions, diagrams, and video below for more details.

There are 5 lines. From each line, there are 5 spots. This is approximately the distance on each shot:

Spot 1 - 4 Feet

Spot 2 - 8 Feet

Spot 3 - 12 Feet

Spot 4 - 16 Feet

Spot 5 - 20 Feet

You have to make a shot from spot 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 in 5 consecutive shots in order to advance to the next line.

If you miss from any of the spots, you start over in that line. If you miss a shot in line 3, you start over from line 3. You don't go back to line 1.

Your goal is to finish all 5 lines in 2 minutes.

COACHING POINTS

Regressions and Progressions To Make The Drill Easier or Harder Based on Skill Level:

Move back a spot after each make - Rather than making 5 shots in a row, you allow the players to move back a spot after each make even if they miss in between.

Use 3 or 4 Spots - Instead of using 5 spots, you can make it a little bit easier by only making them go to spot 3 or 4.

6 Spots - For more advanced players, you can add an extra spot.

Kyle Korver Status - Make 25 shots in a row.
