Chair
Ages: All Ages Youth Middle School High School+
Purpose of the Drill:
Transition drill where the ball handler works on pushing the ball and attacking the rim. The drill also is a defensive drill where they seek to stop the dribbler or pick up a charge.
Instructions

- Have two lines, an offensive line and a defensive line.
- Start with the ball on the behind the baseline and out at the three point line.
- Have the dribbler push the ball as fast as they can around the chair and then attempt to attack the basket.
- The defender sprints around a second chair which is placed a few feet beyond the offensive chair.
- The defender then seeks to sprint back to stop the layup or pick up a charge.
Points of Emphasis:
- Defensively, attempt to force a jump shot.
- Offensively, attempt to get a layup.
- Limit the number of dribbles or time to create a game environment.
- To emphasize charges, move the defensive chair closer to the basket, giving them time to get in front of the dribbler.
- To simulate a steal and breakaway, move the chair away from the basket.
- Play out until a defensive rebound or basket.
- Emphasize boxing out.
