Basketball Drills for Practice
Coach Crews demonstrates more than 10 different drills that you can use in your program. These drills include:
- Post Drill: Works on multiple skills crucial to successful post play
- Shot Fake: Players work on an effective fake and creating separation from a defender
- 2-Slide Drill: A multiple skill drill that works on ball-handling, on-ball defense, and feeding the post
- Collins Passing: Developed by former NBA player and coach Doug Collins, this is a two-man, two-ball passing drill that enhances not only skill development, but also teamwork and nonverbal communication
- Cat and Mouse: This drill trains the passer and the receiver. Receivers learn to read defenders and get open while passers learn to control the basketball under pressure and deliver a pass at the right time
Each drill emphasizes fundamentals and multiple skill sets. This allows Coach Crews to cover many different concepts in a short amount of time.
