Requirements:
- Mastering the basics of a break
Aim:
- break training in a competitive situation
Organization:
- 2 teams with different shirt colors
- the players all run around the circle
- as soon as the coach shoots they're gonna rebound
- the team that captures the ball runs a break on the other side (no shot within 5 seconds = push up + take out other team on the back line)
- after score or defensive rebound the other team runs a break back
Teaching Points:
- outlet position and pass
- flyer on the other side at full speed away
- execute at top speed
- After score, take in position immediately with overhead pass
Variation:
- two teams arranged alternately in 2 rows
- the players tip the ball to each other via the board (jumping and tipping like a tip in)
- and connect to the back of the other row
- at the signal of the coach, the team that is currently picking up the ball runs a break
- on the other basket
- the other team defends
- (with an odd number, the largest team always attacks and there is automatically an excess situation)
- Two rows at the centerline
- The first two have a ball - Right
- From the center line you dribble to the basket:
- Layup (15x hit in a row, a player under the basket catches the ball and counts, play again if the player didn't count)
- Shots from bucket (7 in a row)
- The player under the basket starts when the dribbler starts.
- Coach goes further and further back.
- Player A takes a shot at goal and player B catches.
- Player B takes a shot at goal and player A catches.
- For 1 minute and goals scored is the number of total points.
