Error Detection and Correction for Shooting Off a Dribble Rebounding Tactics and Skills 71 Error Detection and Correction for Shooting Layups ERROR A player swivels the ball to the side before shooting, allow- ing it to be blocked or stolen. CORRECTION Instruct the player to lift the ball straight up as he shoots. ERROR The ball hits low on the backboard and, with slight contact on the arm, falls short. CORRECTION The player should shoot high off the backboard so that the ball drops in the basket. This way, even if the player is fouled on the shot, the ball will have a chance to go in. Shooting Off a Dribble When shooting off a dribble, the player should pick up the ball while facing the basket in position to shoot. She shouldn’t reach for the ball but should pick it up in front of her shooting knee with the knees flexed to gain balance for the shot. When a player is dribbling to his strong-hand side, he should jump behind his last dribble and pick the ball up in front of his shooting knee. When a player is dribbling to his weak-hand side, he should use a crossover dribble on his last dribble to pick the ball up in front of his shooting knee. Error Detection and Correction for Shooting Off a Dribble ERROR A player floats forward, backward, or to a side when shoot- ing. CORRECTION Have the player pick the ball up in front of her shoot- ing knee with her knees flexed to gain balance for the shot. Rebounding Possession of the ball comes more often from missed shots than any other way. The team that controls the backboards usually controls the game. Offensive rebounding adds to your team’s chances to score, and defensive rebounding limits your opponent’s scoring opportunities. 72 Catholic Coaching Basketball Essentials More than any other basketball skill, rebounding relies on a player’s desire and courage. Good rebounders are able to anticipate missed shots and determine how hard or how soft, or to what side of the rim, the ball will rebound. They also know where their opponents are at all times, and they are able to “box out” their opposing player by getting between the opposing player and the basket and putting their rears in contact with the opponents (see figure 2.48). A player may use a front or rear pivot to turn and box out his oppo- nent. A front pivot allows the defense to turn while watching the offense move toward the rebound. A rear pivot is used to move into the path of the offense without the same visual contact. Encourage defenders to use whichever method gets them in position in front of the offense, sealing the offensive player away from the basket. Figure 2.48 Boxing out. Tactics and Skills 73 A player should avoid reaching over an opponent when she gets boxed out; she’ll get called for a foul if she does. Emphasize the importance of jumping straight up for the rebound. By jumping vertically, not only will a player achieve great height, but she’ll also avoid needless fouls. Here are some additional rebounding tips to share with your players: A shot taken from the side is likely to rebound to the opposite side of the basket. Therefore, players should try to get positioned on the opposite side of the basket when such a shot is taken. Once contact is established with an opposing player, the defensive rebounder wants to maintain that contact until releasing to jump for the rebound. After controlling a rebound, a player should keep the ball at chin level with her elbows out (see figure 2.49). Use the following guidelines in coaching your players to rebound free throws: Have your best rebounders in the positions closest to the basket. Remind players to block out the players next to them when the op- posing team is shooting. Designate a player to block out the shooter when the opposing team is shooting. Have one player near midcourt to pre- vent easy fast breaks by the opponents when your team is shooting. Figure 2.49 Proper position after controlling a rebound. 74 Catholic Coaching Basketball Essentials Error Detection and Correction for Rebounding ERROR Your players watch the ball, and their opponents gain posi- tion for the rebound. CORRECTION Instruct players to locate their opponents first, get inside position, block out, and then go for the ball. ERROR Players have trouble holding onto rebounds. CORRECTION They need to catch rebounds firmly with two hands. ERROR After gaining rebounds, a player has the ball stripped by an opponent. CORRECTION The player must protect the ball, keeping it above her forehead with her elbows out and away from her opponent. Rebounding Game CLEANING THE GLASS Goal To get the rebound. Description Play 2 v 2, with the coach as a nonplaying shooter. Each play begins with the coach shooting at the basket, intentionally missing the shot (see figure 2.50). The two players on offense try to rebound and score, and the defense also tries to rebound. If the offense makes a basket or the defense gets the ball, the play is over. Give the offense five straight plays, and then switch offense and defense. Each rebound is worth one point, as is each basket. Keep track of points and compare them at the end. (continued) Tactics and Skills 75 Cleaning the Glass (continued) O X C X O Figure 2.50 In position to rebound. ASEP/E2443/08.50/MA:TomJ/R1 Playing Defense Individual defensive skills are sometimes less appreciated than indi- vidual offensive techniques, but they are just as important. Your players need to learn the basics of player-to-player defense, both on the ball and off the ball, to compete successfully. On the Ball Defenders can best keep their opponents (the players with the ball) from scoring by staying between the opponents and the basket. Defenders should try to maintain an arm’s distance from the offensive player with the ball. Tell your players to consider these things about their bodies and court positions when guarding a player with the ball: Body position Am I in ready position and alert? Am I arm’s distance from my player (the ballhandler) and able to put pressure on his ability to shoot, pass, or drive? Court position Is my player close enough to attempt a good shot? Am I close enough to the player to prevent an easy shot? Am I too close, so the opponent can drive around me? Will a teammate be able to help me if the player beats me with the dribble?.

Like many rookie and veteran coaches, you probably have had little formal instruction on how to coach. But when the call went out for coaches to assist with the local youth basketball program, you answered because you like children and enjoy basketball, and perhaps because you wanted to be involved in a worthwhile community activity. Your initial coaching assignment may be difficult. Like many volunteers, you may not know everything there is to know about basketball or about how to work with children. Coaching Youth Basketball will help you learn the basics of coaching basketball effectively. To start, let's take a look at what's involved in being a coach.

  • 2Nd Grade Practice Game Concepts and Drills
    2nd Grade Practice Game Concepts and Drills You should be cycling through these various game concepts and drills at every practice. Through repetition and consistency, the kids will learn how to play the game of basketball, properly shoot the ball, shoot a lay-up, pass, and dribble. At this age, they don’t need much variety. Keep things simple and repetitive, so they can build good habits. Refer to the Basketball Skills Progression Document to see the correct form on dribbling, passing, shooting, lay-ups, footwork, and game concepts. Pick one drill from each of the following categories for each practice: • Game Concepts/Scrimmaging • Passing • Dribbling • Lay-ups If there’s time, there are other drills that you can do, listed at the bottom. Dribbling, lay-ups, passing, and some kind of scrimmage or game play should be all done at every practice. Game Concepts Yes, this seems very basic, but we are laying the groundwork for these kids becoming good basketball players. There is no sense in teaching them about any fundamentals if they don’t understand how the game works at a basic level. You may need to take a few minutes at each practice to remind the kids about basketball game concepts. • OFFENSIVE CONCEPTS o At this level on offense, we really want the kids to learn: ! Quick passes ! Go directly to the lane with your dribble. ! Don’t force a shot if it isn’t there. ! Try to work the ball around and get a shot in and around the lane. ! Minimize the fast breaks and focus on running a disciplined offense.

  • Officiating and Ball Handling Lesson Plan
    Officiating and Ball Handling Lesson Objectives: The purpose of this lesson plan is to be able to understand the rules and regulations of basketball, hand signals and terms of officiating and a wide variety of different ball handling skills. Time: 45 minutes Equipment needed: Basketballs and basketball hoops, computer, overhead projector Classroom: Start off with video on rules and regulations. Then go over the signals for traveling, carrying or palming, double dribble, jump ball, goaltending, over and back, and time restrictions (10 seconds to cross half-court, 5 seconds to get rid of ball when you pick up your dribble or defenders within arm’s length of you, 3 seconds in key area). Then go into different fouls that can be committed. These would include personal fouls which are considered as any physical contact such as hitting, pushing, slapping, holding, and an illegal pick and screen. Other fouls can be committed when a person is shooting, if they don’t make the shot, they get 2 free-throw shots, if they make the shot, then they get one free-throw shot, but if its in the 3 point range, then they get three if they miss. The team is allowed 7 fouls per half, after that the other team goes into to bonus, which is one- and-one, once they get passed 10 fouls, they are in double bonus and they get 2 free-throws for any foul committed. Some violations are charging, which is an offensive foul when the offense runs into the defensive player while their feet are set.

Instructions Skills Practice the following skills: 1. Dribbling Dribbling is moving the ball with a series of taps or pushes to cover ground and still retain control. It allows a player to change direction quickly and to avoid opponents. The best contact point is the inside of the foot, but the outside of the foot will be used at faster running speeds. The ball should be kept close to the player to maintain control. 2. Inside-of-the-Foot Pass (Push Pass) The inside-of-the-foot pass is used for accurate passing over distances of up to 15 yards. Because of the technique used, this pass is sometimes referred to as the push pass. The non-kicking foot is placed well up, alongside the ball. As the kicking foot is drawn back, the toe is turned out. During the kick, the toe remains turned out so that the inside of the foot is perpendicular to the line of flight. The sole is kept parallel to the ground. At contact, the knee of the kicking leg should be well forward, over the ball, and both knees should be slightly bent.
