Exactly..."taught them how to play basketball" How about coaching without "if"? My team turns into deer in headlights when I give them more than 1 option. 10-11 years old
@@MegaSkycap its all about practice and getting used to it. Dont flood them with options give them a motion offense where they have to decide between two options. For example set an offball pick and roll where the ball handler can decide between passing to the roller who pops out for a midrange shot or to the runner who cuts to the basket
Break it down in small parts. As they become better let them put everything together. You'll be able to emphasize common footwork, language and be pleasantly surprised by your players hability to understand.
@@banana403 No I get that.. been coaching for a while :) I just know this has a bunch of great components that these kids have already been trained on. The weakside walking their man down to setup for the screen, the strong side v-cut. Hell... the basic fact that the screener knows how to screen the correct space LOL It's a great drill with a lot of good actions. I personally don't teach strong side drift on drives.. I go with the Dribble Drive counter move... we only drift against zones. But the kids look great!
I disagree with the post stuff. Sealing your man to prevent him from helping is a very effective way of handling this situation. They use it at every level of the sport
