Drill
Type: Fast break
Description: Drill
uses full court and 3 balls.
In Diagram X's are defenders and O's are attackers on offense.
Start positions for players are as in the Diagram.
Defender X with the ball starts drill WHEN OTHER THREE PLAYER ARE IN PLACE AS IN THE DIAGRAM, by passing the ball to either of the two offensive players at the elbows.
On catching the ball the two O's attach the basket at the other end of the gym as in a fast break. The two X's defend against the break. Obviously the X that passed to start the drill is the trailler trying to catch up in this drill and eliminate the fast break advantage.
Next 2 on 1 attack starts immediately after basket is scored OR one of the defensive players gain possession of the ball OR the ball is turned over by the offensive players.
Players rotate in any way they wish to fill any of the 4 starting spots.
Variations: 1. Offensive players get one shot only. 2. Offensive players can't pass and pass and pass to try and get a shot. If defense gets "a stop" the attack ends because in a game the offensive team would call off the fast break and set up its regular offense.
Points of Emphasis: 1. All player, both offensive and defensive, should go all out, i.e., as fast as they can, when doing this drill. 2. Players returning from a 2 on 1 attach MUST return in the off court, sideline area. 3. Offensive players should use a pass over a dribble at all times, as passes move the ball up court faster than dribbling. When the initial pass from the defender is made to the elbow player, the off elbow player should jump out, be sprinting down court looking for a pass, call in for the "Ball", BEFORE their offensive partner has received the ball.
