• 101 drills in Defense

Valley of Terror

This is a 3 on 3 drill that works on boxing out properly on defense and good positioning for offensive rebounds. It also helps prepare the players for a physical inside game.

Instructions

Assign equally skilled teams of 3. (ie two big and one guard,or one forward, one guard and a center for each team).

The rules are simple. They play 3 on 3 in the paint. The bounderies of the key are the out of bounds lines. There is no passing and no dribbling. Instead of the teams getting possesion to start the game or after each basket, the coach shoots from the foul line and the ball is live at that point.

The players must jockey for position, get the ball and put it back in the basket. Both teams shot at the same basket. It will get pretty aggressive but let them play! Only call fouls when the players get too out of hand. This helps your big men to play through the little hacks and slaps they will get in games but the officials may not call.

After every made basket, the coach puts the ball in play with a shot from outside. If the players want to score and win they will have to box out on every shot!

The first team to six wins.
