War games

Just like 1 on 1 zigzag drill, 2 players start out on the baseline with one ball. The player with the ball will dribble in a zigzag motion from the baseline to mid-court. Player two will get body to body with player one. Player two will bump and push the ball handler while he dribbles to mid-court. The ball handler will not try to go past the defender-making sure there is constant contact to mid-court

Vision Test

A coach stands at the FT line. Two players are standing on the box on each side of the lane. Player dribbles to coach, full speed, head up, from half court. At top of circle, comes to a jump stop with both feet available for pivot. One of the post players raises his hand as a signal to get him the ball (don’t shout ‘ball.’ In this drill we want to make sure the dribbler is developing court vision). The dribbler pivots off the appropriate foot, spinning around and sealing off the coach (i.e. drop step around and seal on hip), and makes a ‘step around’ bounce pass with the correct hand to the post player’s outside who then drop steps for an uncontested lay-up. The passer follows up his pass and takes shooter’s place. After you shoot, go back to line at half-court.

Heads Up, Dribble Up

Every player has a ball and must stay in bounds in the half court area. Drill begins when players start to dribble the ball. The object is to be the last one dribbling on the court.

Go Somewhere With It.

I use this drill to teach kids how make their dribble more efficient. After a few times the kids understand that they must be able to cover a lot of ground in order to do it correctly.
