LONG PASS AND CUT DRILL

B retrieves shot from the bank-
board and comes out with dribble and
jump-hook pass to other guard, C.
This man uses a long baseball pass to
the center, A who comes out to meet
the pass high and feeds to either B or
C cutting into the basket.

The drill is valuable for the use of
the long baseball pass and for teach-
ing cutting and receiving at high
speed.

DRILL FOR ADVANCING THE BALL OVER THE CENTER

LINE WHEN MET BY GUARDS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The coach or a player shoots and
one of the guards retrieves the ball
from the bankboard, comes out with a
dribble and advances it to, but not
across, the centerline. The other
guard hurries to a position a short
distance from him. Have the defen-
sive men attack them when they are
in this position.

The offensive men must use their
footwork and offensive fundamentals
to break through these men and get
across the line.

This is an important phase to
practice as every team occasionally

encounters a team that practices this sort of defense and this drill affords
a similar set-up with all of the variations possible by the defensive being
practiced and check plays given to the offensive men.
