Je Off-Season Basketball Skill Development Workout Off-season basketball skill development can go a long way in determining how well a team will perform during the regular season. Stanford University head coach Jerod Haase has a proven method for improving players’ skill levels. His toolbox of drills includes many that date back to his association with coaching great Roy Williams. Coach Haase shares with you a number of highly intense and competitive drills that can be used not only to improve skills, but also to keep athletes conditioned. The presentation begins with Coach Haase discussing how to approach skill development with a teammate on the court. He then goes into shooting drills that require players to get their footwork right. Coach Haase then shows how he incorporates “game action” into the drills as well as explaining how to avoid wasting time when doing any drill. Ball Handling Development The next part of the presentation focuses on ball handling. Coach Haase runs players through a number of stationary and on-the-move ball handling drills. Haase has one of his former players demonstrate the two-ball, on-the-move dribble workout, which is one of the highlights of the presentation. The idea of adding movement to the two-ball drill will challenge players to improve their ball handling skills. Post Player Drills & Counters Also presented is a post player workout. Haase likes his posts to develop a favorite move and a counter to it. They work on those skills to become great at a few things instead of just good at several skills. You will also see a great drill that teaches post players to own the block prior to receiving an entry pass. Shooting Off the Dribble Shooting from a stationary position is a critical skill, but having the ability to shoot off the dribble or on the move will determine a shooter’s greatness. Coach Haase shares a variety of drills to work these skills as well as a transition shooting drill. The drills are fun, competitive, and can be done with teammates or individually. Coach Haase’s series of drills are designed to improve players’ skills and teach competition. They can easily help your players work hard in the offseason all while enjoying the process.

The Director/President of Hoop Consultants and the Director of Basketball Operations for ATTACK Athletics in Chicago, Procopio has worked with the likes of Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, Caron Butler, and 75 other NBA players. It was Procopio’s work as Bryant’s coach that helped him help the Lakers to their last two NBA titles. 3v3 & 4v4 Shell Drills From Building Your Half Court Offense with Shell Drills, players have developed the necessary fundamentals to run your offense. In this new video, Coach Procopio shows you how to implement those concepts into competitive 3-on-3 and 4-on-4 offensive & defensive drills. This system allows players to put up shots that they would normally take in a game. In the 4-on-4 drills, the focus is pick-and-roll and screen-the-screener actions. These details were covered in earlier DVDs. Now, players can put them to use within a competitive setting. This is a great way to teach the fundamental understanding of 5-on-5 principles and movement. In 3-on-3 action, Coach Procopio breaks down proper spacing, attacking angles, and cutting action within your offensive system. You will see several cuts – pin down, cross screen, and down screen – demonstrated. Beginning from a 3-on-0 situation, each action is implemented progressing to 3-on-3 where players again take game-like shots. NBA Actions & Post Play You will also learn how to incorporate popular NBA actions like Floppy and Zipper into your 3-on-0 breakdowns. This teaches players how to properly execute screens. Post players learn all the scoring options available to them and Coach Procopio goes into great detail about moving without the ball and maintaining great spacing. All of Coach Procopio’s drills have specific options that allow players to be creative while focusing on the offense (or defense). With all of Procopio’s drills and insight, your teams will be able to run any offense with a better understanding of how it is supposed to work. Rent this offensive & defensive drills DVD today.

 Off Season Strength Training & Conditioning Off season strength training is vital to any player’s success. The problem is that most strength and conditioning programs are just lifting weights and running mile after mile. There’s more to it than that and Tim McClellan (M.S., C.S.C.S.), a private strength and conditioning coach, can train you to reach your goals. McClellan has trained over 200 NCAA All-Americans, a number of Olympic gold medalists, and even professionals in eight different sports. You can “hire” Coach McClellan to run your off-season workouts. In this basketball-focused DVD, Coach McClellan and Mountain Pointe (AZ) advanced physical education instructor Jeff Decker outline a comprehensive workout program that helps to improve athleticism and reduce injuries. Warmup Coach McClellan takes you through a neurological warmup that features work on the agility ladder, dot jump, jump rope, and line hop exercises. These help to develop quickness, footwork, and coordination. The drills also help stimulate key muscles and joints needed for high-level strength and conditioning training. Mobilities After the warmup, athletes perform a number of mobility stretches to loosen the muscles and joints. Each of the movements shown focus on the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and hip flexors. Injury Prevention Exercises The third phase of the workout deals with exercises that help to prevent injuries both for the upper and lower body. You will see basketball-specific exercises that develop balance, strength, and mobility. These allow players to stay in games during a long, grueling season. Plyometrics Plyometrics are explosive jumping drills. Coach McClellan uses basketball-specific plyometrics to train explosiveness. He starts with low-level exercises and builds up to advanced drills to develop that explosiveness. Power Development Players have to have strength and power. Coach McClellan takes you through a demonstration of weight-bearing exercises. These combine several elements of explosion, balance, strength, and power. Strength Movement Drills The body has to be programmed to move quickly and in different directions. Coach McClellan demonstrates drills that focus on basketball movement. Control, balance, symmetry, and power are emphasized in this segment to develop strength in the upper body, lower body, and core. Agility Drills All the movements taught help to develop proper footwork. This is important because it allows athletes to change direction while moving at high speeds. If you want to be a championship-caliber basketball player, you have to build the foundation. That starts with a comprehensive strength and conditioning program. Coach McClellan and Coach Decker give you the blueprint to do just that with this presentation. Rent this off season strength training DVD today.

This offense uses basket cuts, pick-and-rolls, loops and fades. They are executed according to the ball movement and how the opponent defends. There are three ways to attack the defense with the dribble. Loop, crack back, and fade. All of these options help build a foundation for ball movement and player movement.

Today's man-to-man defense systems can anticipate and eliminate many offensive options thanks to preparation and scouting. If your offense fails, Coach Hinson can help you rebuild and keep your effectiveness. Relocation is about getting the ball in. Hinson uses terms like the box and line of deployment to coach the post. The elbow drifts to the elbow after a baseline drive. Elbow penetration is the opposite movement. Hinson divides up the floor into four quadrants, and assigns each player a role within each quadrant. Players are also given rules to follow when they penetrate. This clinic presentation shows the entire offense using five players. This offense provides the post with two options and a 45-degree angle option when the ball enters the posts. This allows the whole team to stay on the same page with regards to offense at all times. This offense has flexibility. It can be run in a 4-out or 1-in alignment, as well as 3 out, 2 out, and for all baseline plays out of bounds. 55 minutes. 2007.
