Tom Billeter (1)

Quick Strike Fast Break Offense Want to control the tempo of a game? You don’t have to do it with defense. Augustana University head coach Tom Billeter believes in controlling tempo through his offense. Billeter has been successful in doing so having led Augustana to the NCAA Division II national championship in 2016. In this video, you will see how Coach Billeter implements his “pre-set” full-court offense that averaged over 90 points per game in 2016. Pre-Set Fast Break Offense Coach Billeter’s “pre-set” offense is really a secondary break that simply takes advantage of a defense not being set. It includes some very simple concepts and players love it since it allows them the opportunity to get out and run. Billeter uses on-court demonstrations to show you all the rules of the offense including spacing, cutting, screens, and more. Fast Break Offense Secondary Actions The additional actions built into the preset allow you to add as many layers of complexity as you want in your transition attack. One action is the Pipe Action, which uses a zipper cut to set a mid-ball screen with different reads. Off the mid-ball screen, there are even more options presented. While Coach Billeter’s offense may seem complex, it really is not which is another advantage for players. Fast Break Drills You will see how Coach Billeter practices the full-court offense using the Circle Drill. Players start circling the free throw circle. One team gets a rebound and then executes the full-court offense. Billeter changes up the drill and sometimes the offense must go against seven defenders. Players learn to execute the various actions of the offense in a disadvantage situation. Press Offense Coach Billeter believes in playing fast and when teams press his offense he responds with an attacking press break. His press offense can be used to attack any style of full-court pressure. Billeter demonstrates multiple options to attack the press with ball reversals and attacking it up the sideline. This offense is one that will help your team score more and allow you to control the tempo of any game. Ren this fast break offense DVD today.
