Philosophy

• This is a fun shooting game that combines attack & counter shooting footwork with the same footwork in a 1v1 context. It forces players to go game speed on their shooting, and then read the defense as they transition to 1v1. It requires 3 chair & 3 basketball.

Instructions

• 1 & 2 start on the baseline.
• 3 chairs are set up on the wings and the top of the key. Each chair has a ball.
• On “go,” both players run to the chair on their side, pivot and shoot. If they make the shot, they are awarded 2 points.
• After shooting, players race to the chair at the top of the key.
• Whoever gets the ball 1st is on offense.
• The offense has 2 dribbles to score.

• Baskets are worth 1 point.

Coaching Tips

• 1. Games are up to 5. 2. Every time players reset, they should switch which side they start on. 3. On the initial shot, you can prescribe a certain pivot or allow players to choose. 4. As players get to the ball for 1v1, they should scan to see where the defender is.
• That allows them to quickly utilize the proper footwork and attack.
