Type: Pivoting, Offense

 

Description:

Players form three lines at centre line.

 

Player in middle line sprints to foul line.

 

Player now approaching the foul line,  

receives pass from the coach at free-throw

line and one player from each of the  

other lines follow to play defense.

 

Player 1 with ball must keep ball away from the two defenders for 5

seconds by pivoting and ball movement. The end of the five second

count is announced by the coach and the player tries to split the

defenders and make a drive to basket.

 

Players return to a different line.

 

 

Variations:

After 5 second count player passes to coach.

 

 

Points of Emphasis:

1. Stay low and pivot aggressively.

2. Move ball strongly and vary position of ball up and down.

3. Strong step-through.

4. Good double-team technique by defenders.
