This drill is excellent for teaching players to time off ball movement, get open, and to get your hands free on a dodge that starts the play

Description of Drill-Execution

  • Split the field in half and have the drill running at the same time on both sides of the field.
  • X1 starts the drill by dodging towards the 8m and bouncing top side.
  • X2 will pop off the middle into a spot where they can receive the pass from X1 and finish the shot
  • D will play dummy defense and stay in the dodging lane to force X2 to pop to receive the pass.
  • X1 then moves to D, D moves to X2 and X2 goes to the back of the line.
