Foul Shot Box-Out Drill For this drill, your team will be practicing the proper way to box out during a foul shot. Break your team into groups of five. One group will be on offense with a shooter on the foul line. The other group will be on defense. All the players, except for the player shooting on the foul line are to line up in the proper spots for a foul shot. Two of the players on defense get the closest positions to the basket. The next two spots belong to the offensive players. The order continues in this fashion until all spaces or all players are occupied. The foul shooter will shoot the ball and all the players must attempt to get into the best position to rebound the ball. Whoever rebounds the ball becomes the next shooter and whatever team that person was on now is on offense and occupies the offensive area around the key.
