(Rental)-Scorpion Swarm Attack 2-3 Zone

Scorpion 2-3 Zone Defense SWARM Attack 

If you’re playing the same old 2-3 zone defense and not seeing the results you’d hoped for, let Wayne Walters help you install the SWARM. Coach Walters is the former head coach at Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology and the inventor of the SWARM defense. Walters’ junior college defense forced more than 30 turnovers per game during the last four years of his career. If you want to learn switching and stunting defense concepts, this is the presentation for you.

Coach Walters teaches you the basic SWARM defensive alignment along with the nine different coverages or stunts that change the rotations and the when, where, and who will execute the trap. Each stunt has a different rotation which forces your opponent to guess which player or passing lane will be open.

The Scorpion 2-3 Zone Defense formation is used to lure opponents into initiating their zone offense. Once the offense commits, the defense becomes a 2-3 matchup, which Walters calls “Scorpion,” and that can transform into a man-to-man or even a 1-3-1. You will also hear about Stealth, Razor, and Laser which are used to describe coverages, rotations, and the roles of the guards and the low block defenders.

Pressure Opponents with the Scorpion 2-3 Zone Defense

With the foundation established, Walters presents a variety of ways to put pressure on opponents. You can show an aggressive 2-3 zone that traps the point guard at the top of the key. You’ll see how to stunt to this and stunt to the next pass or drive.

The idea behind the Scorpion 2-3 is to never let the opponent get comfortable. For teams that do not have a strong point guard or when a wing trap is simply preferred, Coach Walters offers a series of stunts: Thunder, Gamble, and Bullet. Each play tricks the offense into thinking a certain passing lane will be open. That lane is immediately closed by the specific stunt related to the coverage being run.

The Scorpion 2-3 zone defense will wreak havoc on your opponents because it is impossible to prepare for. The number of stunts available is just too much for an offense to handle. This 76-minute video teaches a defense that is simple yet complex. It is easy to learn and can be implemented at any level. Rent the Scorpion 2-3 zone Defense DVD today.
