About This Play/Drill

This plan comes for 3fromthecorner.com follower Coach Dan Carey from Hamilton High School in Sussex, Wisconsin.

Offense's goal is to simply dribble the ball into the paint -- no shots, just get into the paint safely with both feet and under control with the ball.

This game really helps with a "no help needed" mentality guarding the ball -- something we say all the time to our players.  We want them in "one-on-one mentality" when guarding the ball.  But when focusing on help, and getting into gaps, this is a great drill to build the habit of being there early with your FEET on helpside, and not reaching.

 

Put in a "shot clock" of 15-20 seconds that the offense has to try to get into the paint

 

*Offense not allowed to play "butt ball" and just catch it, back your man down and get into the paint -- has to be on a direct drive

 

*Great drill to build toughness in your team. Also a great drill for taking charges

This game really helps with a "no help needed" mentality guarding the ball -- something we say all the time to the girls (I coach varsity girls in suburban Milwaukee, WI).  We want them in "one-on-one mentality" when guarding the ball.  But when focusing on help, and getting into gaps, this is a great drill to build the habit of being there early with your FEET on helpside, and not reaching.
