Wing to Wing Drill

This basketball shooting drill will help prepare players for game like shooting skills.  Emphasize correct footwork and ensure that players receive the ball with knees bent and hands up, ready to shoot.

Preparation
• Player 1 stands underneath the basket with the ball.  He is the rebounder/passer
• Player 2 stands at the left elbow, ready to catch and shoot

Execution
• Player 2 moves from the left elbow to the right elbow, where he receives the pass from Player 1
• Player 2 squares up, plants his inside foot, and shoots.  Player 1 rebounds the shot and prepares to pass to Player 2 again
• Player 2 slides back across the key to the left elbow, where he receives the pass and shoots
• Continue for allotted time or number of made shots, then rotate positions
