    Drills to Build The Pack Line Defense -Chris Mack, Xavier [email protected] -Practices their Pack Line every single day. Coaching Point: Have an identity. !-Hard to build habbits if you change your defense a lot. !-They more or less keep the pack line no matter who they are playing Their pack line d is not a soft one where you sit in the lane. !-Their PLD is an aggressive defense, with incredible ball pressure, and you must be smart off the ball. The PLD helps give you a “system” to play defense. The PLD: 1) Gives players answers and accountability !-Certain things players can/can’t do do !-They are given specific rules ex. “You can’t play behind the post” vs “Play hard” 2) Simplifies Scouting--> Their coaches watch a ton of film but do not give it all to the players. Instead they play certain actions in very specific ways and practice these every day. !Ex. Practice defending staggered screens so when they play a team they already !know how they will defend this and get better at it through out the year. 3) Creates a culture your players can believe in. !Varsity players “pass” down the defense by teaching your younger players !without a lot of involvement from coaches. ****Mark the pack line in practice every day**** Think of it as a 16 foot 3 point line. (Figure 1a) GOLDEN RULE: When your man does not have the ball YOU MUST HAVE 2 FEET IN THE PACK LINE. Exceptions: If your man is cutting you must chase the cutter.

  • YOUTH BASKETBALL COACHES MANUAL 4-5Th Grade
    YOUTH BASKETBALL COACHES MANUAL 4-5th Grade PRACTICE OUTLINE YMCA YOUTH SPORTS PRACTICE SESSION PLANS Warm-up (5 minutes) Fitness component (5 Minutes) Skills Drills (15 minutes) Game / Play (15 minutes) Team Circle (10 minutes) YMCA YOUTH SPORTS PRACTICE SESSION PLANS PRACTICE 1 Warm- Up (10 minutes) Begin each practice with 5 to 10 min- utes of warm-up activities to get players loosened up and ready to go. Players dribble, jump stop, and shoot, traveling from one basket to the next. All shooting should be two to four feet from the basket. Fitness Component (5 minutes) Key Idea: Flexibility Gather the team into a circle. “Is there such a thing as stretching your muscles too far, or should you stretch as far as you can to improve your flexibility?” Listen to their re- sponses. “Muscles should stretch only until you feel a slight pulling. You should never feel pain stretching. If you do, you’re stretching too far.” Choose a stretch for the team to try. “I want you to stretch until you feel the slight pulling. Everyone will have different levels of flexibility, but all of you need to stretch properly to stay flexible and prevent injuries.” PRACTICE 1 Skills Drills (15 minutes) 1. Introduce, demonstrate and explain creating passing lanes. 2. Practice providing support for teammates by creating passing lanes. Description Play 3 v 1 games. Offensive players move to open space. Defenders play cooperative to active defense. Use offensive positions on one or both sides of the basket. Players pass, then move to an offensive position (point, wing, baseline, or high or low post) adjacent to the ball.

  • Basketball Pack Line Defense
    Basketball Defense - the Pack Line Defense By James Gels, from the Coach’s Clipboard Basketball Playbook (http://www.coachesclipboard.net/Playbook.html), @ http://www.coachesclipboard.net (http://www.coachesclipboard.net) The pack-line defense is a variation of man-to-man defense developed by Dick Bennett (http://www.basketballstore- coachesclipboard.net/bd-02429-dick-bennett-the-pack-line-pressure-defense.html) for the Washington State University Cougars. Something similar has been used Sean Miller at University of Arizona, Tony Bennett at UVA, and Chris Mack at Xavier. First understand the basic tenets of pressure man-to-man defense (M2MDefense.html). I used to say that there is probably no reason to use the pack line defense if you have excellent, quick athletes who are good defenders... just keep the intense pressure on, using the standard pressure man-to-man defense. On the other hand, the pack line defense will perhaps help less talented teams "hang in there" with better teams, and can also help a team having difficulty preventing point guard dribble-penetration. However, since many teams nowadays use the dribble-drive to attack, it makes good sense to use the packline defense no matter what your team's skill level is. The packline will help clog those seams and stop the dribble- drive. The packline is a gap defense, that still puts pressure on the ball. The packline defense also puts your players in better position for defensive rebounding, and may result in less fouling. The "pack line" The pack line man-to-man defense is also called a "sagging" man-to-man defense.

  • Dribble Drive Motion Offense
    Notes on the Dribble-Drive Motion Offense - the Basics From the Coach’s Clipboard Basketball Playbook,@ http://www.coachesclipboard.net The "dribble-drive motion offense" is one of the latest, popular offenses seen at the college, pro, and high school levels. The original innovator is Vance Walberg of Fresno City College and Pepperdine, and now assistant coach at UMass, and he called it his "AASAA" offense... meaning "attack, attack, skip, attack, attack". At the college level, coach John Calipari has popularized it, modified it, and renamed it the "dribble-drive motion offense". Guard dribble-penetration is the key, and dribble-penetration is one of the most difficult things for a defense to stop... plus it exposes the defenders to picking up fouls, and gets us to the free-throw line. Keys are: spacing creating gaps Vance Walberg attacking with the dribble-drive. This is a guard-oriented offense that features spreading the floor and dribble-penetration to the rim for lay-ups or kick-out three-point shots. Coach Walberg uses the term "key or 3" meaning either a layup, or a 3- point shot. This offense uses a 4-out set. O1 and O5 are like double point guards, and their mentality is to attack with the dribble first, and are outside shooters secondly. O2 and O3 are set deep in the corners (and must be patient) and they are shooters first and dribble-attackers secondly. The post player does not look to post-up, but rather plays on the opposite block, elbow or short corner... as this creates more open lanes for dribble-penetration.
