3 on 3 Close outs

Very useful format and descriptions of drills. I am using Sportplan...
Tony, Coach

DESCRIPTION

3 players on offense, and 3 defenders under the rim.

The attackers should stand around the 3pts line and take step back behind it (imagine the NBA arc)

The defenders should keep moving in place and each one of them is NOT allowed to close out to the attacker in front of him!

The coach stands behind the defenders under the rim and throws the ball to one offensive player.

In this moment the defenders must sprint each to his spot (respecting the above rule).

- One defender must close out the guy who has the ball

- another defender must close out the gap between the guy who has the ball and the next guy(s) who doesn't have the ball

- the other guy must close out the help side and stay in the pack zone.

The offense is allowed to make only one pass to force the corresponding defender to EXPLODE and close out his guy.

Once the coach says "change", three new defenders come under the rim with their ball, start moving/shaking and the drill starts all over again. After finishing all the groups as defenders, we change the offensive team and repeat all over once again.
