Top to Top with Turn
This is a simple drill to work on speed and agility. To set up the drill place cones across from each other near the top of the key at both ends of the floor. Line up 3-6 players across the middle of the court.
Breakout Dribble
While a long outlet pass is still the fastest start to any fast break the breakout dribble may be the second fastest if executed well.
Warm-Up/Coordination - 2 Ball Tennis Ball Warm-Up
To help develop coordination kids need to experience a wide variety of activities which is why early specialization is not advised for young athletes.
Pass Fakes
Pass faking is an underused skill in basketball; a great principle to follow is "fake a pass, to make a pass." Pass faking can create lanes to pass directly through a defender; an example would be to fake high and pass low.
Sideline to Sideline Touches
During the off-season players are in need of drills that can be run with a conditioning element to them. "Sideline Touches" incorporates quality shooting with conditioning work similar to a basketball game.
Baseline Drive and Follow to Closeout
This drill combines movement off penetration, defensive closeouts and 1 on 1 play. O1 begins at the top and passes to O2 on the wing.
