Youth
Basketball Drills - Shotgun Passing Drill
|
Purpose:
|
Great
drill for teaching players to use their peripheral vision
when passing and receiving the basketball so they can see
the entire court.
|
|
Procedure:
|
Six players are at each end of the basketball court. In
each group, one player stands with a ball at the free throw
line, facing away from the basket. The other five players
position themselves in a semicircle from one side of the
free throw line to the other, facing their teammate out
front in the shotgun position. One player among the five
in the semicircle has a basketball. The drill begins with
the player in the shotgun position throwing a chest pass
to one of the four players in the semi-circle who does not
have a ball. As soon as the pass is made, the player in
the semi-circle who began the drill with a ball, chest passes
the ball to the shotgun. This drill continues for 1 or 2
minutes and then players rotate clockwise so the player
on the right moves to the shotgun position and the shotgun
position moves to the left side of the semi-circle.
