1 INDIVIDUAL DEFENSIVE FOOTWORK by PATRICK HUNT National ITCP Head Coach Footwork Players face the coach. Coach points to a direction (left or right) or makes a call out (eg. two slides to the left). Coach should work at having the players only make 1-2 slides and not have the drill go continuous. Emphasise: - "stance" - feet, weight, "ready" - Head position (in the middle of your body and "nose behind your toes") - Hand position - "big to bigger" foot movements Half court containment Player 1 starts with the ball at the half way line. Their goal is to beat the defender and enter the key through the free throw line. The defender's goal is to stop the dribbler getting through the free throw line. Variations: - defender to hold their shorts at first (this emphasises the importance of Turn the dribbler/ channelling Defenders 1 and 2 turn the dribbler in the backcourt. Once the offensive players get to the half way line, the defenders must now "channel" or force/ guide the offensive players to the sideline/ baseline. The offensive players should not be allowed to penetrate to the middle of the court at all! Emphasise: - staying in a "stance" - pressure on the ball - defensive player to talk and call out "ball" when guarding the ball - offensive player to try and get to the middle and penetrate throw the free throw

2 Splitline closeouts Coach passes to coach on the sideline. The defensive players (X) closeout to their player calling "ball." Coach on the sideline then passes back to the coach on the splitline, whilst defensive players jump to the ball. Variations: - defend offense off the dribble (1 dribble only) 1 on 1 closeouts Defensive player (X) passes the ball out to the offensive player 1 on the perimeter and closes out. Players play 1 on 1. "No middle " and "no inside" penetration to be allowed by defence (force baseline) Offense to be restricted to two dribbles.

3 ITCP COACHING CLINIC TEACHING CLOSING OUT by PATRICK HUNT NATIONAL ITCP HEAD COACH Splitline closeouts Coach passes to coach on the sideline. The defensive players (X) closeout to their player calling "ball." Coach on the sideline then passes back to the coach on the splitline, whilst defensive players jump to the ball. Variations: - defend offense off the dribble (1 dribble only) - defend offense off two dribbles 1 on 1 closeouts Defensive player (X) passes the ball out to the offensive player 1 on the perimeter and closes out. Players play 1 on 1. "No middle " and "no inside" penetration to be allowed by defence (force baseline) 1 on 1 off a skip pass Coach makes a skip pass to offensive player 1 who is on the other side of the court. Defensive player starts in an open stance on the split line and closes out to player 1. Players play 1 on 1 Defensive player should carry a hand and can closeout "long" or "short" Variation - offensive player should look to attack middle or the area

4 2 on 2 Coach passes the ball to either player 1 or 2. The defender who is defending the coach closes out to whoever the coach passes to. The other defender closes out to the free player. The other defender closes out to the free player. Players play then 2 on 2. 2 on 2 Coach passes to player 2. Defensive player on the coach closes out "long" on player 2, whilst the other defender closes out on player 1. Players play 2 on 2. 1 on 1 (2 balls) Coaches pass the ball to offensive players on the perimeter. Defensive players closeout. Players play 1 on 1. Play is restricted to half the key.

5 2 on 2 (inactive post) Defensive players are helping on the post from the ballside and helpside wing. Coach passes to player 1 at the point. Defensive players closeout on their player. Play 2 on 2. 2 on 2 (inactive post) Coach passes to the helpside wing. Defense closes out. Play 2 on 2. 2 on 2 (inactive post) Coach passes the ball to the low post who may pass the ball to player 1 at the point or player 2 on the wing.

6 4 on 3 Defender 1 is on the BALL on offensive player 2 at the point. Defender 2 is at the TOP of the key. Defender 3 is at the BOTTOM of the key. IMPORTANT: Effective communication and precise positioning are the key to this drill. 4 on 3 Player 2 passes to player 4. Defender 3 now takes the BALL (player 4). Defender 2 now rotates to the BOTTOM, whilst defender 1 rotates to the TOP. Defender 3 calls "BALL", defender 2 calls "BOTTOM" and defender 1 calls "TOP" IMPORTANT: Effective communication and precise positioning are the key to 4 on 3 If 4 passes to 1, then: - defender 1 takes player 1 (BALL) - defender 2 rotates to the TOP - defender 3 rotates to the BOTTOM Note: If in doubt as to who takes the ball, the closest player takes the ball and the other two defenders get to the TOP and BOTTOM quickly. IMPORTANT: Effective communication

FULL COURT TEAM DEFENCE 1 ON 1 FULL COURT ONE THIRD WIDTH OF COURT - Turning the dribbler, head position on ball - Channeling the dribbler, head position on shoulder away from the ball - Foot movement pattern, slide run slide - Get shoulder to shoulder when chasing the dribbler - Maintaining pressure on the dribbler 2 ON 2 FULL COURT HALF WIDTH OF COURT - Line of ball principle - Effective communication - Turning the dribbler - Channeling the dribbler - Help and recover (hedge, stunt, fake trap) - Run and switch (run and jump) - Run and switch footwork, help and recover footwork, trapping footwork - Stance, hand position - Timing of the run and switch

8 3 ON 3 FULL COURT FULL WIDTH OF COURT - Split line principle - Revise line of ball principle - Run and switch 3 man rotations - One third, two thirds principle - Open stance, closed stance - Sprinting to split line, line of ball - Tempo - Calculated gamble - Footwork 4 ON 4 FULL COURT FULL WIDTH OF COURT - Revise pressure on the dribbler - Revise effective communication - Revise line of ball and split line principles - Revise timing of run and switch - Run and switch 4 man rotations - Scrambling - Closing out, containment footwork - Stance, footwork - Everyone moves together, Fly with the Ball Mario Blasone FULL COURT TRAPPING 5 ON 5 - Brief overview - Role of the Stopper and Trapper - Roles of the Safety - Alignment when trapping - Sprinting out of traps - Closing out, containment footwork - Pressure on the dribbler - Effective communication - One third, Two thirds principle - Shooting the Gap - fake trapping, timing, vision

9 Basketball Australia National Intensive Training Centre Program Teaching Motion with No Screens By Patrick Hunt, National ITCP Head Coach Introduction - Part of the National Intensive Training Centre Philosophy - Teaching principles of play concepts allows players to understand the game and adapt to any offensive system - This system adopts a fundamental approach to the game - These principles are able to be transferred to any offence - Imperative that coaches multi-skill players to provide them with the tools to play any position on the floor Fundamentals for Effective Offence (Individual) - Ability to run the floor in transition - Pass and catch the ball, ability to dribble and pass left & right hands - Dribble penetration, left & right hands - Leading for the ball in the guard, forward and post positions - Shoot the 5-6 metre jump shot at 50 per cent success rate - 3 offensive moves from guard, wing and post positions, plus counter moves in these spots on the floor Offensive Principles of Play Progressions - Fast break after a made basket and from broken play - Ball reversal - Back cut read the defence - Dribble penetration from the ball reversal - Receivers principles - Passing to the post and post action - Dribble entries Recognise and create space Move the ball Move with purpose Be hard to guard Be hard to read Ball reversal 3 on 3 - Skip - Through hands - Via the post Advantages of ball reversal - Creates passing opportunities to the post - Pressures the defence to consistently close out and contain the dribbler - Pressures the defence to play in precise defensive position on every pass - Use of V-cuts, L-cuts and replace cuts to occupy defence - Catch and face everytime

10 Back cuts 3 on 3 - React to the position of the defence - The defence will be your instructor - Transfer of this principle to all offences, particularly screening - Reacting to the defence on the post (high/low action) Dribble penetration - Go at the defence s hips/shoulders - Be a scorer first - Get both feet inside the key on penetration - Use of shot and foot fakes to create penetration opportunities - Come to a 2-foot stop in the lane Receivers principles 3 on 3 After dribble penetration - Four Receivers spots - Two of these four Receivers spots must be occupied on all dribble penetration Receivers movement on dribble penetration Receivers principles expanded to 5 on 0 - Imaginary line above block area - On dribble penetration, anyone on or below this line gets to the Receivers spots at the basket

11 - In 5 on 5 dribble penetration, we will have 2 Receivers inside the key Person opposite the dribbler will flare for the 2 or 3 point perimeter shot Person back on defensive balance Receivers principles on 5 out Receivers principles on 4 out, 1 in Receivers principles on 3 out, 2 in Passing to the Post/Post cutting action - Used as a pressure release - Used as a start to offence - Used to create options for cutter, re-locator and post - Can be used ball-side and help-side - Principles of cutter & re-locator

12 Diagram A Diagram B Diagram A Post flashes high, turns and faces in direction of cutter at elbow. Wing back cuts, guard re-locates into space created by cut Diagram B Post steps to short corner, guard cuts, 2 re-locates into space created by the cut - Order of cuts can be reversed depending on reaction of defence - Post player should use catch fakes to create cutting lanes Dribble entries - Use of back cuts on dribble entries - Post up cuts head underneath the ring, slash arm technique to post up - Shallow cut set up for a further back cut - Dribble hand-off Dribbler come to a 2-foot stop Hand position on the ball 1 on top, one underneath for easy of catch No more than 2 dribbles towards teammate Receivers look to turn the corner after taking the ball Initial dribbler to dive to basket after hand-off, depending on the offensive alignment Conclusion - Motion with no screens is a very sound method of teaching offensive principles of play - Allows for a consistent transfer of these principles to other systems of offence - Encourages precise positioning, creation of space, recognition of space and purposeful movement without the ball - Creates opportunities for all players - Rewards reacting and reading of the defence - Fun to play encourages creativity
