Breakdown Drills for the 2-3 Zone Defense
In order to implement the 2-3 zone defense, you need to drill it. Coach Marshall shows you 10 different drills that help to develop the technique and internal instincts needed to become great defenders in the zone.
- Eight vs. Five Drill: Defenders must play against eight offensive players. Defenders must move and find the correct spots. If done correctly, the offense should not be able to get a shot off.
- Mass Fundamentals Drill: This works on stance and movement building strength and muscle memory which help players play defense for an entire game.
- The Deflection Drill: Teaches players how to disrupt passes, fly around the court, and intercept the ball.
- The Guard Overload Drill: This helps your best defenders learn to anticipate the next pass and take away opponents’ next moves.
- The High Post to Short Corner Drill: Trains centers and forwards to react with the right slides when the ball gets into crucial areas.
