This is a great drill that will help to teach your players how to handle the ball with aggressive, multiple defenders, as it simulates a high pressure defense.
Set Up
- All Players on the baseline, in groups of 3, 2 on defense, 1 on offense.
- One ball per group.
Execution
- 1st group begins with offensive player using the entire width of the court to try and pass the half court line.
- 2 Defenders use their feet, to cut-off the offensive player, trapping in corners and swiping away errant dribbles.
- If the offensive player loses the ball, the defense gives it right back and continues the drill.
- When the offensive player crosses mid court, that group goes to the back of the line and the next group begins.
- Alternate offence to defense.
