This drill teachers players to keep their hand up on defense. The player must use his hands and feet to deflect or steal the ball. (I know that kicking keeps the ball with the offense but the idea is to try and break up the play). This is also a good conditioning drill and passing.

Player 1 (offense) starts at the right side going in for layup. Player 2 (defense) starts in front of basket and jumps but floats by offense swinging with his left arm. This way he doesn\‘t get called for body.

Put out three chairs on each side of a court then you have one guy run to each chair. When he gets to about half court have 2 offensive guys sprint down to half court then the coach passes the ball in and the offense try to score.

When you see someone play and he/she is really good notice their weaknes. One main weakness in players is that they can only shoot from one side. So make them go the way they can’t.
