- After a few seconds, the coach will blow the whistle and another player from the Red team will hustle in
and play defense.
- If the Blue team scores, the Red team is on offense. As soon as the Blue team scores,
two players from the same team go underneath the opposite hoop for defense.

Continually tell your players...
- Hustle, play hard.
- Work hard to trap the offenders.
- Avoid the trap when on offense.
- Try to score quickly while they have the 3-on-2 advantage.
Motivation / Teaching Tips
Tip #1 - You can create a competition out of this. Whoever scores the most points, wins.
You could also pick a certain number of points (6, 8, or 10) and whoever gets to that number first, wins. The loser could run, do pushups or whatever you deem necessary.
Tip #2 - This drill usually works best with 12 players, but 10 players will work.
Tip #3 - If you sense your team lacking intensity, this drill usually fixes the problem. I usually allow aggressive play, but nothing excessive.
