Dribbling Drill: Weak Hand Full Court Drill

This basketball dribbling drill will help develop the players weak hand while handling the ball at game speed.

Preparation
- Form a line on the left baseline (right-handed players will start from the right side)

Execution
- Player dribbles up the court with his left (weak) hand
- At halfcourt, player stops abruptly and makes three hard dribbles with his left hand
- Player continues the full length of the court, and converts a layup with his left hand
- Player rebounds his own shot and repeats, coming back the opposite direction, staying on the left side of the court, and using his left hand

Points of Emphasis
- Keep head up, don’t look at the ball
- For this drill, dribble by pounding the ball into the floor, not pushing the ball way out in front and catching up with it
- Emphasis is on developing the weak hand, not speed
