Big Shot

Source: The Shooting & Scoring System

Big Shot changes up the pressure mechanism. Instead of the pressure being applied by time, it’s applied by misses. Theoretically, you could shoot forever in this drill. Make that your goal!

Diagram 1 - Setup

Setup

• This drill uses 5 spots - the corners, the wings, & the top of the key.
• 1 ball, 1 rebounder

(Diagram 1)

Instructions

• Shoot from player 1 until you miss 2 shots in a row.
• Once you miss 2 in a row, move to spot 2. Continue with that pattern through all 5 spots.
• Every make is worth 1 point. Your score is your total number of makes accumulated over all 5 spots.

Coaching Tips

• Focus only on the shot at hand. It’s easy to get nervous after the first miss. Don’t let the last shot affect the next shot.
• Remember a rough start can be overcome by a great spot. Many players get discouraged by a bad start. Instead, view it as a challenge to overcome as you progress through the later spots.
• Maintain good form. Players tend to lose their form when they get tired. Stay disciplined as fatigue sets in.
