Backcourt Trapping - FastModel Sports
Published 04/15/2014 Favorite Send to FastDraw Email Print EmbedAbout This Play/Drill
Drill for ballhandling as well as defensive quickness and trapping. Ballhandler tries to get to the half court line with the being trapped or getting the ball knocked away. Defenders try to get a trap set or get a 10 second count.
- 2/1 Backcourt trapping. We will allow the offense to get the basketball at different points on the floor. We want to give the offense a chance to advance the ball up the floor. The defenders want to keep the ball out of the middle of the floor and force the ball toward the sideline.
- The most important thing is to get the ball stopped, stripped, deflected or stolen. If the defenders can get the offense to pick up the ball that gives defense a great chance to get a steal. If the offense picks up the ball that is as good as a steal.
- if the offensive player can beat the defense without the ball getting touched by the defense then the defense has to stay on the floor and go again.
- This drill is great to teach for late game situations when you have to get a steal or stop.
