"Drills for Modified Triangle Zone/Man Offense"(2of5) - Youth Basketball - Doug Schakel 

Love these play-centered drills! 3:55 7:57

Damn man, this is some good stuff. Perfect drills for the triangle offense.

this is a coach's coach. straight to the point. I'm studying this guy

This is awesome! Thank you so much for this outstanding resource.

Coach 'B'- The changes/adjustments we make vs. a zone defense are: (a) We run the "Spread Cut" (go to 13:27 mark of Modified Triangle Offense video-part 1 to see it) instead of the "X" Cut. (b) We also use the "Stay Option" a lot and the "Stay and Play Option" (go to 16:01 mark of Modified Triangle Offense video-part 1 to see both of them) (c) We run the Pick and Roll Option on the Two-Man Side with the Post setting a ball screen on the top zone defender. If nothing materializes, the Point runs a backup dribble to the right wing spot and the "Rover comes over" to the ballside Rover spot. Now you have a new Triangle Side. On this backup dribble by the Point, the original Wing rotates up to fill the Point spot. (d) On the Two-Man Side, we call "Middle Post" and the Post cuts to the middle of the free throw line for a pass from the Point who then cuts toward the basket just outside the lane for return toss from the Post. Post can also fake the toss to the Point and then pass to either the Wing or Rover on the Triangle Side.

Very very good illustration, and breaking down of the offens,e love the action it creates also!!!. The modified version 👍

Coach, thanks so much for this series and you availability by email.

Thinking about using it with my 10u Boys next season!..1 question though?..What are the action or movement for players if the team run Zones a lot?

Hi. I love the triangle offense. I coach 5/6 boys and I have 9 players on my team. As you know for rec I need to sub all the boys equally which means I always have 1 very weak player on the court during the game who is unable to run this motion What do I do??? He is a level 1 skill level . Thank you. Cindy Bourassa

Also Coach 'B'- Send me your e-mail address and I will e-mail back our "Play Call Sheet" we use to help us get the kind of player movements we want during the game. Contact me at: dougschakel@aol.com

Im thinking about implementing the triangle offense for my 8th grade girls, the team practices 4 days a week, i know you said your girls only practice once a week, so my question is would you recommend doing these drills everyday and do you run them back to back?
