Basketball drills for technique passing
- We are going to work on two baskets and therefore also in 2 groups.
- (How many groups you make depends on the number of baskets. More baskets means more groups).
- Half of a group stands approximately on the center line on the right side of the basket.
- The other half starts on the left side just beside the basket.
- These persons have the ball and throw the ball to the person on the center line.
- This person dribbles the ball to the basket, makes a lay-up, catches the ball and joins the line next to the basket.
- Centers + Guards + Forwards

This drill will help develop proper passing and shooting techniques. This drill also emphasizes communication between teammates
- Divide the team into four squads. One team on each block and one team on each elbow. Give each team one ball.
- The first person in each line shoots and follows his shot, passing it back to the next person in his line.
- After rebounding the ball, the shooter returns the ball to the line they were in and rotates clockwise to the end of the next spot. Rotations are shown in the diagram.
- All four lines work as a team and keep track of the total number of shots scored.
- Emphasize to the players that communication is very important in this drill.
- Players must make game-winning passes and their shots must also be taken at game level.
- The time limit of this exercise can be changed from five minutes to whatever you like or number of shots scored
- Also the spots on the court where the players shoot from can be varied
- 2 numbers a few meters apart
- x number of chesst pass
- x number of bounce passes
- x number of overhead pass
- x number of bounce pass out
- x number of baseball pass

Players gather on the right or left side of the center line.
The first two have a ball.
There are two catchers under the basket.
From the center line you dribble to the basket and make a lay-up.
The catcher catches the ball and passes it to the next player in line.
You do this until you have scored 15 times and then you change sides.
With 3 men on the back line and the middle one has the ball- The middle passes to a man and runs after the ball
- The man in the middle passes to the man on the other side, who also runs after the ball.
- They do this while running to the basket on the other side.
- When someone is close enough to the basket, the man runs a lay-up.
- He becomes the defender and the other two attackers must try to reach each other with a long ball.
- The goal of the defender is to prevent the attackers from scoring.
- If the attackers do not manage to score, they must do 5 push-ups.
