1-on-2

A good 1 on 2 defensive drill that helps people with their ball handling.

Instructions

Divide the court in half lengthwise. Make up groups of three players to do the drill. You should have two groups going at a time. One on each each half of the court. Give a ball to each group. One player on each group is on offense and the other two are on defense. The offensive player must reach the other end of the floor, trying to beat both defenders. If a steal or deflection occurs, the offensive player gets the ball back at that spot. At the other end of the floor, the offensive player moves to defense and one of the defensive players goes to offense and they come back. Then let the next groups go.

Tips

  • Let the players only use their half of the floor.
  • Tell the ball handlers to be aggressive and use moves and not be afraid of making mistakes.
