5 Small Sided Game Drills For Youth Basketball Offense

By Jeff Huber

In this video, Jim Huber takes you through 5 Small Sided Games from the Youth Coaching System that you can use to build an effective youth basketball offense.

The Youth Coaching System will meet every need (player development, team concepts, practice planning, etc.) of those coaching players ages 9-14.

These drills build on one another and help players learn the basic concepts of good offense.

Coach Huber uses drills that build up to 5v5, allowing players to access prior learning and apply it as more players are added to the offense.

In the drills, Coach Huber breaks down elements of effective offense, including cutting, penetration reaction, proper footwork, and good passing.

These 5 Drills Show How To:

  • A 1v1 drill on how to fill open spots & how to read defenders to know when to cut backdoor.
  • How to get open when denied and how to use proper footwork to create space to pass when players can't dribble.
  • React to penetration and create space for a driver while also positioning players to catch and shoot.
  • A 4v4 game that teaches players to maximize the use of the dribble.
  • A 5v5 game that uses an unconventional scoring system that rewards the execution of proper offensive concepts.

This YouTube Video Covers:

  1. How and when to fill open spots.
  2. The read to recognize when to fill and when to cut backdoor.
  3. How to get open against denial defense.
  4. Proper footwork to create space for passes and how to find passing windows.

  6. A read for the driver to know whether to shoot or pass.
  7. How to utilize the dribble with a purpose.
  8. A way to use scoring systems to incentivize desired offensive actions.

The Youth Coaching System's strength is its comprehensiveness - it covers all your youth coaching needs from A to Z, saving you hours of planning time.

Installing a youth offense can be extremely frustrating for youth coaches and players. Utilizing Coach Huber's proven system (55 championships!) eliminates this concern, setting you up for a positive coaching experience!
