The Complete Zone Offense Blueprint

This Zone Killer System Beats Any Zone Defense

With Ryan Schultz

image

Ask any coach long enough, and they’ll tell you the same thing…

It’s not man-to-man that keeps them up at night.

It’s zones!

Not because zones are complicated…

But because they are unpredictable. 

Coach Ryan Schultz learned this the hard way.

You see, after winning multiple state titles, he began seeing zones… lots of zones.

He saw tons of 2-3 zones
He saw 1-3-1 zones
He saw 3-2 and 1-2-2 zones

Coach Schultz had every zone imaginable thrown his way.

He and his staff slowly grew frustrated as they didn’t know from game to game what “new” zone they would face that night.

Here’s the thing: 

Every coach knows that the real challenge with zones isn’t the zone itself. 

It’s the constant guessing game. 

What version will we see tonight?

What will they throw at us next?

And how much practice time will it take to be ready for all of it?

If this sounds familiar…

You’re not alone.

Few things can make a coach feel more helpless than a complex zone you’re not prepared for.

Players start second-guessing every pass. 

The momentum shifts.

The crowd feels it.

That’s why, over the last 6 years, Coach Schultz refined his strategy, so he no longer fears zones… 

He BEGS teams to run them! 

You see, after getting every zone defense thrown his way, he discovered a core truth…

And that is - preparing for zones one at a time was impossible.

The solution had to be something simple enough for his players to understand quickly.

Yet devastating enough to tear ANY complex zone defense to shreds.

So he rebuilt his zone offense from scratch. 

Around universal concepts and strategies that work against EVERY zone…

No matter how cleverly it's disguised.

The result wasn’t some tweak or special hack.

It was a true breakthrough.


Meet The Architect - Coach Ryan Schultz

image

Coach Schultz is the mastermind behind a system that has helped his team become a perennial powerhouse. Competing in Iowa’s toughest division, he has achieved:

  • 221-66 Career record (77% career win percentage)

  • 8 Trips To State Tournament in 12 Years

  • 6 Finishes in Top 4

  • 2 State Titles

  • 15 Coach of The Year Awards

With all of his success, it’s easy to see why teams have thrown every zone defense but the kitchen sink at him.


Improved eFG% With Zone

Before Coach Schultz revamped his zone offense system, zones sometimes forced his team into lower efficiency possessions.

But after implementing his new, modern approach?

Their effective field goal % actually went up! 

From an already high 56.17% to an EVEN HIGHER 57.21 %

image

In other words, when teams play zone, Coach Schultz has EVEN MORE SUCCESS!


Blueprint Of Success Against Zones

Coach Schultz provides you with a blueprint for how to attack every zone. It is a multi-layered approach to dismantling any zone offense you might see.

Coach Schultz doesn’t leave anything to chance. His system has 4 phases to help guarantee you success against zones.

Phase One: Sets and Quick Hitters To Destroy Confidence

Over the years Coach Schultz learned the easiest and fastest way to get teams out of zones is by attacking them with some unstoppable sets.

If you score easy buckets the first 2 or 3 times against the zone, 90% of the teams pull out of their zone immediately.

This is why Coach Schultz has put such an emphasis on using proven sets to get easy buckets.

Coach Schultz teaches you how to implement these sets as well as which sets work best against odd and even front zones. You’ll have 20+ Sets and Baseline Out Of Bounds plays to choose from.

And the sets don’t just give an open look for a 3. They almost always provide an easy look at the rim for a layup or dunk.

Two, or three of these and you’re likely to see the zone disappear.

Phase Two: Universal Zone Concepts

Coach Schultz knows it is tough to prepare for every different zone out there and the hundreds of slight variations.

So he has found it more effective to teach players Zone Concepts that work against all zone defenses. This allows your team to play conceptual zone offense as you attack the zone.

Just a few of the zone concepts covered include:

Exploiting Gaps/Seams

Learn to do this in a variety of ways including vertical and horizontal stretching of the defense as well as quick ball reversals.

Distorting Defenses

Learn how to force defensive “forward coverage” on wings creating 2v1 scoring opportunities.

Screening Zones

Learn to create paint touches from flare screen actions and learn to screen the interior of the zone for layups.

Blind Cutting & Playing Behind The Zone

Learn how to effectively catch in scoring position by blind cutting behind the zone as well as playing behind the defense on the baseline.

All of the concepts Coach Schultz teaches are universal. They work against any zone. So no matter what action your players will attack with a higher basketball IQ.

Phase Three: Alignments and Actions

Coach Schultz covers all of the most common zones out there.

From even front zones like 2-3 and 2-1-2…

to the odd front zone like 1-2-2, 3-2, and 1-3-1.

You will learn the strengths and weaknesses of each zone and how best to attack each.

Which offensive alignments work best against each zone.

  • 1-3-1 Offensive Alignment

  • 2-1-2 Offensive Alignment

  • 3-2 Offensive Alignment

  • Overload Alignment

Which actions are most effective against each different zone.

  • Coach Schultz walks you through multiple actions and teaches you which one is most effective against each zone defense

And which sets to use against each zone to get a quick bucket at the rim!

Phase Four: Transition Attack

Coach Schultz shows you how to play fast, so fast that most zones never even have a chance to get set.

Using simple, high-efficiency actions like the high drag screen, Coach Schulz teaches you how to create an immediate advantage in transition, turning 5v5 into 5v4 scoring opportunity.

The result?

  • Fewer possessions against a fully formed zone

  • More early paint touches

  • More kick out 3’s

By attacking in transition, Coach Schultz gives you the blueprint to punish the zone before it even exists!


The Analytics Are Clear: Start In The Paint

Sure- the 3-point shot can be a powerful weapon against zone defenses. And with Coach Schultz’s system, you’ll absolutely generate high-quality, rhythm 3’s.

But here’s a fact that many coaches overlook:

Perimeter 3’s are almost always going to be available against zones.

As a matter of fact, teams often play zones because they want you to chuck up the first 3 available.

Coach Schultz’s approach flips that script.

He teaches you how to attack the zone from the inside out.

There is no reason to settle for early 3-point attempts. These same shots will be much more open coming off paint touches.

A recent study about paint touches from the Journal of Physical Education had this amazing stat:

Teams increased their points per possession by .35 when the ball touched the paint first.

The best part for you?

Paint touches are a point of emphasis in every phase of Coach Schultz’s zone offensive system.

All Sets, Concepts, and Actions are designed to attack the paint first. Which will help your team achieve a higher point per possession average as well.


“I went from hoping we don’t see zones this year to praying we do!”

Coach Schultz’s offensive system completely changed my mindset on how to attack zones.

He made it simple and easy to understand. I love all of the sets in the product as well. We don’t shoot great from the perimeter so I expect we will see our share of zone this year.

I feel ultra prepared now, having this product. And appreciate all of the concepts taught throughout the video.

Simple straight forward plan for attacking each zone.

I love all of the great sets Coach Schultz provides to get the ball to the rim (we are not a great perimeter shooting team this year).
Super helpful seeing all of the different zones on-court and the various alignments and concepts that Coach Schultz uses to break all of the zones down.

This is definitely a keeper for me and my staff. It is awesome to have everything I need to attack the wide variety of zones out there today, on one video. And really appreciate the crystal clear teaching provided!
