Youth Basketball Drills - Two on One No Reach Drill



Purpose:
Great drill for teaching players to stay in good defensive position. So many player's don't play good defense, that is they don't move their feet and keep good defensive position but rather they reach in and try to make the steal every time as their man goes by them. We teach our kids to keep in good defensive position and to get the offensive player out of the triple threat position. We will make our steel on the pass or when the offensive player loses control of the ball.
Procedure:

Line up three players at half court. One with the ball on offense and the other two are defenders. The two defenders are not allowed to reach for the ball. They must move their feet and keep good defensive position between their man and the basket using the side lines and the baseline as their extra defenders. Offensive player gets to repeat as offense as long as they make it to within 8 feet of the basket without losing the ball or picking up their dribble. Continue drill until all three player's have had an opportunity to play the offensive position.
