Pivot Race

Categories: Footwork  
Ages: All Ages  Youth  Middle School  High School+  

Purpose of the Drill:

This drill provides a fun and competitive way to drill pivoting.

Instructions

  • Have three lines spread along the baseline as shown.
  • On your signal, all three players will begin doing a designated pivot repeatedly until they reach the half court line.
  • For instance, you designate all reverse (drop step) pivots. If all players are initially facing the right sideline, the first reverse pivot will be off of a right pivot foot, and players will then be facing the left sideline.
  • Their next reverse pivot will be off of a left pivot foot, and they will wind up facing the right sideline again.
  • This alternating pattern continues until they reach the division line.

Points of Emphasis:

    Use the same format to drill forward pivots. This drill promotes balanced skill development and intensity.
