All players to try and shoot from all black cones and then from all red. Encouraging all to shoot and be confident in the goal circle
Mid court, practise with all players taking turns. All players are lined up behind each other and each have a turn when it is there turn. Thrower passes to runner, runner returns the ball and then runs to cone to right of them, once there, thrower throws them the ball checking foot work, receiver catches, stops and returns the ball, then they run back to the start and over to the next cone to the left of them, repeat the pass, catch, stop, return the ball to the thrower and then run to the back of the line. Continue until all players have had a go.
Shooting practise for everyone
in more ways than one
in more ways than one
Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
