Post subject: | Beginner Drills |
I am helping coach a 6 grade team. Many of them are not experienced and don't dribble or shoot well or understand blocking out. I am going to try and start with fundamentals. 1) can you recommend dribbling that gets everyone involved? 2) also a shooting and rebounding drill What kind of offense do you recommend for youth? Last year they did a 1-4 pick and roll because only one kid could dribble. They had a terrible time against the press too. Any good plays would be greatly appreciated. Any help at all. Thanks for your work! |

Hey Coach... Here area a couple good dribbling drill to start with where everyone needs a ball: https://www.breakthroughbasketball.com/play.asp?id=8326 https://www.breakthroughbasketball.com/drills/0-1-2-dribbling.html Then progress to something like this: https://www.breakthroughbasketball.com/drills/1v1-overlap.html For shooting and rebounding, keep it simple: Basic partner or individual drills are fine. Start close to basket and work out. Here's a good progression to improve shooting technique and skills: https://www.breakthroughbasketball.com/fundamentals/shooting-drills.html Here's a good one to practice shooting footwork: https://www.breakthroughbasketball.com/drills/555-shooting.html Here's another good one for small groups you can do after they practice form shooting: https://www.breakthroughbasketball.com/drills/twoballshootingdrill.html For rebounding, pick a couple of these and keep it simple: https://www.breakthroughbasketball.com/drills/rebounding-drills.html For offense, we highly recommend motion offense. A simple 5 out offense is fine. Players should all get touches so they develop. If you work on dribbling, footwork, and passing during practice quite a bit... they will get better at handling the press and players should be able to handle a motion offense. That's the only way they are going to get better. If you try to hide them with a 1-4 ball screen offense, only a few players get better. They must development fundamentals, there just is not way around it when it comes to handling pressure and running a good offense. I prefer motion because it's best for player development. If you need pointed in the right direction, let me know. |
