Pass & Go Circle

Nice drill for (starting) players to learn to pass quickly and go after the pass.

Instructions

Make a circle at midcourt, diameter about 4 meters. One player in the middle. First player passes to middle player, and goes after his pass. Middle player passes to next player in circle (clockwise) and moves into circle to place previous player came from. Ball may not touch the ground, use chestpasses.

Variations

  • Let players increase and decrease diameter during drill.
  • Vary direction also during the drill.

Tips

  • Make it a competition by demanding 100 passes from middle to outside of circle without dropping the ball. If ball hits floor, start over again, and let players count loudly. If done well, also try overhead passes.

Skills

Passing, Move after pass.

Players

6 or more (up to 10-12).
