How To Build Your Defense Twice As Fast And Get Off To A Fast Start This Season

As a coach, it can be very hard to develop your team before your first game starts. Most coaches only get 10 to 20 practices... And sometimes fewer than that!

Anybody who has coached understands how difficult this can be.

On top of teaching your system, you typically spend a significant amount of time fixing bad habits... Like when your players over dribble, take bad shots, don't box out, constantly lunge out of position on defense, don't hustle back, etc.

These problems can even plague the varsity coaches as some of these habits can take years to fix. You need all of the time you can get.


A Slow Start and Parents Are Down Your Throat

What's more. You happen to have a slow start to the season -- and have to deal with impatient parents! Even though you're trying to do things the right way... like developing basic skills and basketball IQ that should have been already developed.

And early in the season, this makes it nearly impossible to prepare for the different offenses, defenses, and players that you will face.

Then all of the sudden, you're getting a few ticked off parents down your neck. And instead of focusing on the improvement of your team, you have to deal with that crap.

It has that snow ball effect. Each minute that you're spending on damage control, you could be spending on improving your team. You are wasting a lot of time.

So what if we could help you reduce your headaches, save you time, win more games? You'd probably be interested... right? I know that I was when I was presented with this solution.

It was literally one of those "AaHa" moments. Or more like... "You dummy. Why didn't you think of that before?"


This Idea Will Eliminate These Headaches For You and Help You Win More Games By Giving You A Head Start On Your Competition

We originally got this idea from Don Kelbick.

For those of you who don't know Don Kelbick, Don is the creator of the Attack and Counter Skill Development System. He is a regular contributor and has been featured in multiple DVDs for Breakthrough Basketball.

Don has trained Olympic Gold Medalists, NBA Champions, NBA All-Time 3-Point Leaders, NBA Defensive Players of the Year, and many other professional, college, high school, and youth basketball players. He also has 25 years of college coaching experience at the D-1 and D-2 levels.

Don actually discovered this simple idea and used it to his advantage when he was coaching high school basketball for 2 years. His teams produced 6 Division I players and was ranked #1 in Florida 28 out of a possible 34 weeks.

In most states, there are rules that forbid you from using a ball during the preseason.

However, you are allowed to do conditioning without a basketball.

So why not condition your players by working on your defense... without a ball... during the preseason.

Well, what if you can't be on the basketball court during the preseason?

Go outside. Go to a tennis court. Go to a conference room. You can use cones for points of reference to accomplish the same thing.


So How Do You Legally Build Your Defense... Without A Ball... During The Preseason?

And Will This Work With Any Defense?

When Don builds his defense, there are over 20 drill progressions that flow seamlessly together and improve retention based on prior progressions.

In the 3 video clips below, you will see a couple of progressions of how Don builds his defense.

And you'll see exactly why this will work with any defense!


Video 1 - Explanation - Don explains why he uses his teaching method.




Video 2 - Stance and Perimeter Pass Progression

This is the 3rd progression of Don's off-ball drill to give you a visual of how he progresses. It covers defensive stance and defending backdoor passes and perimeter passes.




Video 3 - Final Off-Ball Drill Defense Progression

This is the final progression of the drill to give you a big picture of how Don progresses through all of the principles for teaching off-the-ball defense. As you can see, it is a highly efficient way to first teach the principles in a team setting.




Obviously, teaching this way will benefit you because...

  1. You don't need offensive players.

  2. You don't need a basketball.

  3. You don't need assistants - especially helpful for youth coaches.

  4. You can apply this to ANY defense since these defensive principles are universal.

  5. You can save practice time teaching the defense. Don't have to deal fumbled passes and can progress through each concept very quickly.


And possibly best of all, you can do this during the preseason before official practice even starts!

You can get a head start on your competition.

And with a few minor tweaks, you can make this work for any defense.

Think about that for a second...

Can you imagine walking into the first day of practice already having your team on the same page defensively? This will make you competitive from day 1.

Fewer headaches.

More early season wins.

More post season wins. Because now you've had more time to develop your team than you typically would have.


Why This Defensive Teaching Method Will Help You Win More Games Even If You Don't Have Preseason Restrictions – Especially Youth and Middle School Coaches

Since I've learned of this method, I've personally used it with youth and middle school teams. And we didn't have a preseason.

So if you don't have a preseason, this can still tremendously help you.

If you do have a preseason, it's an even bigger bonus.

We've had plenty of people comment that DVD 1 alone was worth the price of the DVD set because it will work for ANY DEFENSE and it...

  1. Save you tons of practice time.

  2. Help you progress quicker through the defense.

  3. Allow you to focus on a particular aspect of the defense rather than all of the concepts at once.


How will this save you practice time?

When you don't have a basketball to deal with, you don't have to wait for the offensive player to pass the ball. You don't have to deal with players passing the ball in the wrong direction.

When you don't pass the ball, you don't have to deal with bad passes, the wrong pass, or fumbled catches.

Rather than taking 8 to 10 practices to build a solid defense. Instead, you might do it in 3 or 4 practices.


You Can Be A Beginner And Still Have Success – You Don't Have To Watch and Correct 50 Different Things At Once.

One of the biggest issues I had when I first started teaching defense was when 8 to 10 players were on the court at once.

You may have already experienced this.

It's hard to make sure everybody is doing everything correctly. While you certainly get better with experience, even the 30-year seasoned vet doesn't catch everything.

What's great about the way Don teaches is that you can focus on one action at a time.

And you can instantly tell if somebody is doing something incorrectly because...

  • Everybody is doing the same thing.
  • You know exactly what to look for because you are telling them what to do with your voice command.
  • There are fewer players to focus on.
