Basketball drill: denial defence / 1vs1 and 2vs2
Denial defence / 1vs1 and 2vs2
Prerequisites:
- Knowing defensive stance / attacking principle of in-out.
Organization:
- Coach gives pass on spot one (only attack after four passes/four swings)
- Attacker at spot two and three
- In/out move
- First part of the exercise 1vs1; second part 2vs2
- Passing on: offense becomes defense, defense connects and steps in as offense afterwards (stay on same side)
Goal:
- Teach correct defensive position (denial + help defense)
Teaching points:
- Quickly change position when the ball changes sides, read defenses as attackers (backdoor)
- In/out to the bucket, when defending short, get out to 1m outside 3pt line and use backdoor option, jump to the ball as defender
