Skill development: Defensive slides, wing denial stance, close range shooting, passing, dribbling, and moving to space

- dribbling to space- control and speed

 

 

I'll take this check

 

Organizational Points: 

- games played on one hoop*

- teams must execute at least 1 of the 3 types of passes and 1 of the 2 types of dribbling before taking a shot

- defense must emphasize slides and wing denial while staying arms length away

- defenders cannnot steal or block shots

- alternating possession, even if shot is missed

*if gym has limited hoops available, modify team sizes (i.e.: 3vs 3, or even 4vs. 4). Can also masking tape a square to the wall as a 'mock' hoop.
