I really like the simple breakdown of the different set-ups for the motion offence.
Is the second illustration for the 3 out 2 in offence incorrect? It seems to be the 4 out 1 in, low post illustration.

started motion offense with 10 - 11 yr. old team any down side to having passer cut down lane than curl ball side corner instead of opposite where he can still have option of a return pass and have ball handler replace cutter in a 3/2 ?

We never did that... but you can try it out and see if it works for you... these are young kids.. use the KISS method here.
We ran a 3 out and an Open Post... in the Open Post we cut the guys down the middle a lot. I'm just wondering if that is going to clog the middle when you are trying to get the ball to a post player???

Love this site. This is my second year coaching youth boys basketball, I'm coaching 6th graders now. Not many experienced players on my team so I figured I had to teach them set plays or they'd be running around like chickens with their head cut off. I felt I had to give them direction in where to go and when. They did great with these plays in practice but once they put the uniform on they forgot everything. I realized that they weren't learning basketball, they were learning patterns. But to them, remembering those patterns was too hard. They HATED our Motion offense, too hard they said. 3 out 2 in motion offense, guard passes to the wing, two closest to the ball would screen away, etc., etc. look for cutters. They couldn't get it and said it was too complicated. After getting beat BAD in our first two games trying set plays and some motion, there needed to be a change. So last night I told them we were using a brand new offense. I didn't give it a name, I just told them they have certain spots that needed to filled at all times, while many certain rules had to be followed, you can do anything you want (they loved that idea). They played great! Doing plays that I had tried to teach them earlier all on instinct and making their own decisions (give and go, pass to elbow and take a handoff, etc., etc) now they were learning basketball instead of being stressed about learning a pattern. At the end of practice I gathered them all around (all 14 of them) and told them they just ran a pretty successful motion offense. They stared at me in disbelief. Hopefully the year goes better and they'll learn more about the game. Took me a while, but you gotta keep it simple at this age.

Steve -
More than one way to skin a cat huh!
We ran a 5 out Open Post and there were few rules ..... there were only 2 basic cuts and 5 spots to fill. Keep moving, read the defenese and get open.
The younger the kids the simpler it has to be unless they have already played for several years.
