Run, find, defend, steal

Getting back on defense and forcing a turnover for lay-up.

Instructions

Place a ball about 3/4 court. Start with player underneath the basket facing the wall, or basket on opposite side. On coach’s cue, player sprints to first suicide line, then backpeddles indentifying man to next suicide line, then slides as if guarding man all the way to ball. When player reaches ball, coach or player yells “Steal” and grabs ball and goes for a full sprint lay-up. Next person goes.

Tips

Make sure player does not cross feet causing them to lose balance. When backpeddling, make sure player understands who to pick up in transition.

Skills

Moving feet, finding offensive player on transition, sliding feet, dribbling, and lay-ups.
