The Havoc Strength & Conditioning Program The strength and conditioning of your players is critical to your team’s success during the season. Daniel Roose, strength and conditioning coach for men’s basketball at the University of Texas, takes you through a workout that prepares players to create havoc from the opening tip to the final buzzer. Roose is a nationally certified strength and conditioning coach who worked with Texas head coach Shaka Smart at Virginia Commonwealth University and moved to Texas with him. He begins his presentation by explaining that incoming players must learn the basics of strength training before they move into a workout similar to the one Roose shares. Dynamic Warmup The session begins with six dynamic warm-up phases to get blood flowing to the muscles and to increase the heart rate. With the six phases, you will see three general warm-ups to prepare the body for any workout and then three basketball-specific warm-ups. These serve to help players learn to control their body working on game-like movements. 5 Basic Movements for Strength & Conditioning Coach Roose then teaches the five basic training movements: squat, hinge, push, pull, and loaded carry. Four examples of each movement are provided. They are easy to replicate and coaches can choose which exercises to use based on players’ needs. Litvinov Method Roose uses the Litvinov Method to increase heart rate and condition players. It is somewhat non-conventional but helps players stay conditioned and not feel so beat up during the season. The Litvinov Method has a player perform a heavy lift from the basic movement section followed by a fast and explosive exercise. In addition, Coach Roose includes a metabolic workout and shows you how he uses it in-season and in the offseason. Teams at VCU and Texas have been some of the best defenses in the country in recent years and there is no question that some of it is related to the work Coach Roose has done. His workout is very well developed and can be used with athletes that have knowledge of the basic lifts. Use Coach Roose’s program to wreak havoc on opponents all season long!

Tad Boyle: Game-Like Defensive Practice Drills Looking to slow down your opponent’s best player? Colorado head basketball coach Tad Boyle gives an on-court presentation detailing the use of traps to do so. You will also learn a number of methods for defending ball screens from different locations on the floor. Coach Boyle takes you through the drills that helped him become the first coach in Colorado history to lead the program to four straight 20-plus win seasons and four straight postseason tournament berths. Defensive Basics One of the cores of Coach Boyle’s philosophy is the scoring of drills. The Bubble Drill is one of the greatest in Boyles’ repertoire. A team begins the drill with a lead in a late-game situation. The winning team must remain patient on offense and produce stops on the defensive end. The keys to stopping an opponent at any time include communication, relentless effort, and a true belief in a defense’s ability to get it done. Coach awards points for defensive stops in an effort to get players to buy in to the value of a defensive stop, especially those in crucial game situations. Transition Defense One area of emphasis for Coach Boyle is transition defense. His teams are taught not to give up easy baskets as a result of a fast break. Coach Boyle takes you through a drill that starts as a 2-on-1 and culminates as a full 5-on-5. The drill allows for you to defend against every possible fast-break scenario in preparation for your next opponent. Players are taught to get back on defense and learn to buy in to Coach Boyle’s philosophy of full-court defense. The Art of Rebounding Coach Boyle realizes that rebounding effectively leads to success in basketball. In this 81-minute video, Boyle spends time going through his Circle Drill, one that is used to teach boxing-out and rebounding skills. The entire video is well done and provides coaches with Coach Boyle’s beliefs about defense and rebounding as well as the drills he has used to build a Pac-12 contender at Colorado.

Villanova Unscoutable Zone Offense, Volume 2 Villanova University women’s head basketball coach Harry Perretta has accumulated over 750 wins in his illustrious career thanks, in part, to an offense that is simply unscoutable. Perretta, who became Villanova’s coach at age 22, has spent his entire career perfecting an offense that exploits gaps in any zone defense. Over 40-plus years, Perretta’s scheme has evolved into a continuity zone offense that does not rely on patterns and is extremely unpredictable. In this Villanova Unscoutable Zone Offense video, Coach Perretta takes you on the court to demonstrate this concept-based offense. The offense gives players the freedom and responsibility to adjust and attack based upon a distinct concept. Play can start from any position against any defense and be adjusted at any time. Each position does have some rules in terms of location, spacing, and movement; but the offense centers around players’ strengths. Because of the offense’s flexibility, Coach Perretta does emphasize having a team leader in a specific role. The leader helps to determine the style and effectiveness of your team’s version of Coach Perretta’s offense. Villanova Unscoutable Zone Offense Player Roles Perretta then explains the roles of additional players such as the baseline player, the designate flasher, and the perimeter players. Normally, the offense starts in some form of a high-low setup to stress the defense and create some gaps to attack. Coach Perretta breaks down how the perimeter players are to keep the floor spaced while also providing a pass and fill mentality. What makes zone offenses hard to defend is inside-out ball and player movement. The flasher works from inside-out to create holes for the post player who can also pass out to perimeter players. This provides both inside and outside scoring opportunities. The beauty of Coach Perretta’s zone offense is that it can be initiated from any spot on the floor and can adjust to any zone defense – 2-3, 1-3-1, or 3-2. Perretta also covers how to customize the offense by adding some of your own favorite elements like pick and rolls and back screens. Coach Perretta ends the presentation with two sets: Strong and Weak Wave. These are used to force a defense into specific looks. All in all, Coach Perretta’s offense is one that cannot be scouted, is difficult to defend, and can score against zone defense in the nation. Rent the Villanova Unscoutable Zone Offense DVD today.

Fred Hoiberg Defensive Strategies for Undersized Players There is a segment on how to defend the post with undersized players.

Basketball Offensive System with Fred Hoiberg A well-spaced, disciplined fast break can lead to plenty of success on the basketball court. Nebraska head men’s basketball coach Fred Hoiberg can attest to that. Hoiberg, the former Chicago Bulls head coach, took Iowa State to back-to-back Big 12 Tournament championships in 2014 and ’15. The big reason why the Cyclones were so successful was the transition offensive system that Hoiberg employed. Iowa State was one of the highest-scoring teams in the nation and led the country in 3-pointers per game. In this 77-minute basketball offensive system video, you will get an extensive look at Hoiberg’s transition system. Using whiteboard diagrams, Coach Hoiberg takes you through midseason practice sessions focusing on simple primary and secondary fast break actions. Along with the diagrams, you will get a glimpse at Coach Hoiberg’s playbook. Some of the key points deal with spacing, opening lanes for playmakers, and always being in a position to force a defense to make decisions. Coach Hoiberg then moves to the court for demonstrations of the primary and secondary fast break. Using 5-on-0 and 5-on-5 situations, Hoiberg shows players the spots on the floor where wings and posts need to be to create proper spacing. Big men create space by running the floor, for example. Coach Hoiberg also discusses how players are to react on a middle or baseline drive. Basketball Offensive System for Transition After the primary break, Coach Hoiberg gets into the secondary break actions that involve drag screens, a double stagger screen, and a pin down screen. You will see two quick hitters that Hoiberg likes to use to take advantage of aggressive defenses. Late-game situations are also covered in this video. Coach Hoiberg shows you a late-game inbounds play to get a quality 3-point look for your best shooter. If the long-range jumper isn’t there, the play has an alternative – a layup for a post player. Coach Hoiberg also goes through a late-game situation where your team is ahead, drilling to players to get good looks at the basket. In the final segment of the video, Hoiberg shares two more out-of-bounds plays and also talks about his philosophy of having three distinct phases on in-season practice. He then discusses each phase and how it is used. Hoiberg also talks about tailoring an offense to suit personnel. A sound, well-spaced transition offense can leave defenses out of position. Coach Hoiberg gives you some ideas in his presentation on how you can make that happen for your program. Rent this Basketball Offensive System for basketball DVD today.

High Rep Skill Development Drills Former Owens Community College head coach Dave Clarke shows you how to run skill development drills with 12 to 15 players at a time. With high school teams having fewer coaches, Clarke shows you how to get players the repetitions they need to enhance their skill level. The drills are easy to teach and help coaches use their time efficiently while preparing players for the season. Dribbling Skill Development Clarke does a great job of combining skills into a single drill. The Cone Drill, for example, is one where players make various offensive moves and finish at the hoop with a variety of game-like scoring moves. Clarke calls it the Cone Drill but actually uses chairs and players perform the fundamental cross-over, behind the back, and spin moves through them. One of Clarke’s favorite moves is the floater. His players use it as well as reverse layups, a series of powerful jump stops, and mid-range jump shots to attack the basket. Passing Skill Development One of the lost arts in basketball is passing. When Clarke took over the program at Owens, he saw a need to get back to basic passing fundamentals. His teams improved their turnover percentage as a result. In games, most passes are side-to-side, yet so many passing drills emphasize straight ahead passes. Clarke puts more emphasis on the former. He demonstrates drills that teach players to rip the ball, step up to a pass, and use the proper footwork when throwing a pass. The passing drills include different ways to fake and how to use the dribble to improve passing angles. One drill you will see shows you how easy it is to teach and how the drill can change your team’s performance. Shooting Skill Development Successful teams are those that can shoot from anywhere on the court. In “Dave’s Shooting Drill,” Coach Clarke puts players at various angles. Players shoot from the elbow, the corner 3-pointer, and more as the drill covers all possible game shots. Players are constantly moving through the drill and working on other aspects of their game as they develop their shot. Throughout his entire presentation, Clarke emphasizes the value of having the whole team working on the same concepts at the same time. The idea of developing the complete basketball player helps all athletes reach their potential and, ultimately, leads to team success. Rent this Basketball Skill Development DVD today.

Defenders learn to use active hands and force the offense to make mistakes. Harcum 2-on-1 Drill: This is a unique half-court transition drill that teaches quick outlet passes, sprinting in transition, and the idea that a player’s job is never done. This is the perfect drill for lower level teams where coaches have large numbers of players. Roanoke 1-on-1 Defensive Drill: This is an all-purpose drill that emphasizes many of the basic defensive fundamentals. Players must closeout, guard cutters, front post players, help and recover, control dribblers, and finish with rebounds. 4-on-2 Rebounding Drill: Players are forced into a disadvantage situation making them uncomfortable, but they must come up with the initial rebound in a possession.

Huggins' defense was born out of necessity in the early stages of his career. It is a regular part of Huggins' program. This defense is introduced by player-by-player assignments. The goal is to split the court in half, from basket to basket. The defense will keep the ball on the same side as the offensive player once it is on the other side. Ball pressure is a key factor in keeping the offensive player away from throwing skip passes or reversing the ball. A 5-on-5 zone drill with slides is shown. Huggins moves the zone press up to the floor making it a full-court attack. It is crucial to keep the ball inbounds once it is in the court. The ball is not in the hands of players who are away from it. They must be on the line and up to the line so that the ball does not cross the area. There are two ways to play this full court trap: a regular or a speed them up approach. The goal is protected, anticipated, or trapped by the players. Each of these duties can be broken down into multiple teaching points. 53 minutes. 2007.

Formulating a Winning Team Defense Bruce Weber is one of the top coaches in the country and is well known for his teams’ defensive efficiency. His Kansas State University Wildcats were the 2013 and 2019 Big 12 champs thanks, in large part, to suffocating defenses. In this video, Coach Weber gives you a taste of why he has been so successful on defense. You’ll see a number of drills that have helped him get there. Team Defense Drills While offering up his favorite team defense drills, Coach Weber emphasizes three things – the importance of technique, habits, and toughness. All drills focus on these three things. Closeout drills are first as Weber works on the technique of a good closeout. The 3-on-4 Scramble Drill instills toughness and intensity as the defense plays down a man and must finish with a box out and rebound. The Superman Drill helps you determine your toughest defender as one player attempts to get three consecutive stops against three different opponents. Weber adds in working against the ball screen. The Mascot Drill is used to work on different ball screen coverages. Then, it’s on to transition defense where Weber shows his Rush Drill where the team goes three trips up and down the floor. Shell Drills The Shell Drill is a staple of defensive practices just about everywhere. Weber uses the traditional 4-on-4 Shell and then shows some variations that make the drill even more competitive. Gut Check incorporates the losing team running a sprint and then having to transition back to defense to get a set number of stops. The final drill on the video is the Play Hard Drill. It’s a single-person drill where the player works on denial, jumping to the ball, taking a charge, and diving for a loose ball. This will get your team going for sure. Defenses help win championships and these drills from Coach Weber will bring high intensity, energy, and toughness into your practices that will translate come game time.
