4 X 4 Foot Finish drill
Ages: All Ages Youth Middle School High School+
Purpose of the Drill:
To teach offensive players to attack defenders from different spots close to the rim. The drill also teaches defenders how to create off-balanced shots near the rim without fouling an offensive player.
Instructions
- Start the offensive player four feet from the rim and put the defender four feet at a different angle.
- On the command "GO", both players move toward the basket.
- The offensive player makes an aggressive move right to the rim, while maintaining control all the way through the shot.
- The defender attempts to beat the offensive player to the spot of the shot.
- The defender seeks to create an off balanced shot using good defensive positioning without fouling.
Points of Emphasis:
- Both players want to get the best position they can and use their physical presence to be the aggressor and keep their opponent off balance.
- The offense wants a strong, solid, on balance shot and the defense wants to make the offensive player to shoot and off balanced, tough shot.
