Drill
Type:
Shooting and
Rebounding

two pairs of spots equal distance from the
basket, on opposite sides of the court, such as
in the diagram. Adjust distance of
spots from
basket according to shooting skills of players.
Players shoot from spots nearest basket first, alternating back and forth between the two spots.
Shooting stops once one player gets to ten (made baskets). Players may pass each other on the spots as not all rebounds are fielded equally, and rebounding and getting to the other spot quickly are all part of which shooter gets ten shots in first. (Request
counting be done out loud.)
Players
then shoot foul shots till one player has made five foul shots. (Naturally players are allowed equal turns in this part of
the drill.)
Players
move out to second pair of spots and shoot and rebound till one gets ten made
shots. (Request counting be done
out loud.)
Last

Variations: 1.
Increase/decrease number of foul shots to be made. 2.

Points
of Emphasis: 1.
Rushed shots are usually missed shots.
Shooting speed comes over years of practice. Shooting accurately is more important than speed. 2. Softer the shot, shorter the rebound.
