3 on 2

Two players set up for defense in each key. 1 player has the ball in the center all of the other players line up at half court- outlets – both sides the player with the ball passes to a player on one side. The player who receives the pass moves the ball to the middle and the player who passed it fills the side vacated by the player she passes to. the player on the opposite side who did not receive the pass fills the lane on her side. They then play 3 on 2. If the offense scores who ever scored passes the ball to a middle outlet who takes the ball to the middle of the court the passer takes the lane vacated by the receiver and the drill continues. If a defensive player gets a rebound off a missed shot she passes the ball to an outlet and the drill continues as before. Defenders can be rotated out by the coach, or they can play defense until they get a rebound and become offensive players. With beginners we rotate them out. After they have some experience they remain defense until they get a rebound.

Variations

  • Rather than have two defensive players set up at the opposite end have the two players who were defenders run to the opposite side to defend.

Tips

  • Insist on the ball going to the middle / good practice for the break. Insist on players moving to the ball.
