One Hour Practice

Forum » Practice Strategies » One Hour Practice
I have been asked to coach a high school all star game for graduating seniors. We get a hour practice at 3:00 P.M. on the night of the game, in which players from different high schools will meet. Do you have any tips or strategies on what to do? Should the team freelance, run some ball screen pick and rolls, screen away, or just let them go and play? Thank you for any information on this.

I think it depends on what you're comfortable with. If it were me, I'd have them run freelance motion... my only rules would be:
- keep spacing
- when you pass the ball, cut or screen
- when you're one pass away from the ball and not open... pop out, cut or screen
Agree with Jeff, come up with a few simple rules on offense and let them at it. If it were me and I could ethically get away with it? I'd try to get all those players together for a practice before the practice. Sounds like this is just for fun, so maybe doing something like that is overkill.
