Like defense, rebounding takes dedication. But rebounding is easier if you understand the basics of boxing out, timing, and the importance of defensive positioning.

This is as simple of a rebounding drill as you can have. It is designed for those teams who are having much trouble rebounding and it seems as if there are always more men on the other team going for the boards.

The best setup for this drill is a split court where you have the main basketball goal on your playing floor and 2 side goals on each end of this half court.
The drill begins with a single line of players facing the main goal each having a ball. Begin the drill with the first player tossing the ball of the backboard, rebound the ball with arms extended, emphasis is on keeping the ball above the head and making a good overhead outlet pass to the coach on this goals ballside baseline. The player follows their own outlet pass and receives a good bounce pass from the coach for a lay-up without dribbling.
Next, this player rebounds their own lay-up, speed dribbles down the opposite side of the court. At about the half way point she passes ahead to the next coach, who returns this pass for another lay-up or jump shot.
This player continues to the end of the rebounding line and continues the drill for a specified number of times. The drill may be run using the time clock with a specified number of made shots being required in order to avoid sprints.
Note: The second player begins their turn as soon as the coach receiving the first pass is making the return pass to the first player.
The drill is run for both the right and left sides of the court with the coaches and players switching sides of the main goal in the middle.

The player begins about 4 feet straight out from the basket, ball in hand. At the word ‘go’, he has 60 seconds to bank in as many shots underneath as possible. Player retrieves the ball after every shot, hopefully as it falls through the net and before it hits the floor. Player can count his own or have a partner do it. Player cannot travel, but can reposition with one dribble if necessary after regaining the ball. Yell ‘stop’ after 60 seconds.
