I think you should just let the kiddos play five on five even if they don't know how teach them and then let them play all these variations are not good for kids. Let them play sports!

I use a similar golf game for my U12's except they start from a spot, shoot and rebound. They try to rebound without ball bouncing, but maximum allowed is one bounce before they must have ball in hand. Where they rebound the ball is where they take their next shot from - hence they are (usually) moving closer to 'the hole' each shot. Each hole has maximum 5 shots - they score the amount of shots it takes for them to get goal. If they haven't got a goal after 4 shots they score 5. If the ball bounces twice before they have in their hand (anytime) - they score 5. Lowest score wins after completing multiple 'holes'.

Like a different version of knockout... looks like a great game... any time the kids can have fun and improve their game... its a plus.

I try the Basketball Golf Shooting Drill at my last practice it went over well with the team. I added a variation where once the player was on the 3rd hole the next player in line would start his game. It create a level of pressure for the front shooters. sometimes some players were pass by the players behind them. Nice simple drill.
