1 Teaching Footwork Footwork to Dynamic 1 on 1 Attack Less Talk more footwork (Athletes learn by doing) (*POE = Points of Emphasis) the POE are what our coaches need to detect & correct during the drill detect errors that the athlete is making & correct them this is how they improve Phases of Teaching Phase A: 1 on 0 Technical teaching Phase B: coach guides the defense Phase C: 1 on 1 active defense Phase D: use in game situation TIME DRILL/SKILL/POE POE 0-1 INTRODUCTION - Intro & Demo w/ a co-coach Relationship of the Ball to the Pivot Foot The player with the ball wants to keep the ball in front of the pivot foot. This allows the player to remain on balance. By choosing the foot furthest from the defense as the pivot foot, the offensive player can stay in a strong position. The defender cannot close the space and get to the offensive player s body. It is much easier to keep the ball in front of the pivot foot in this situation. (Also show what happens when you don t keep the ball in front of your pivot foot)

2 1-4 Phase A: 1 on 0 - No Defense Cross over Eyes up scan the floor & the rim The purpose of the drill is to learn to start with crossover steps. You must go slowly at first as players will often want to slide or lift the pivot foot before moving. Each player w/ a ball line up 3pt line Coach faces athletes at middle of foul line w/ two balls A. Both balls are held out at shoulder height. B. The coach drops one ball. C. The player must start with a crossover step to retrieve the ball - The foot furthest from the ball moves first - Only two steps are required; the crossover step to start and the second step to square up. D. Now the player must begin his/her dribble to the basket with a crossover step (This time they will use the outside foot to move first) E. Finish at the rim *Ask players to imagine the defense while practicing their self-tosses Error Detect & Correct Crossover Footwork Used when: -2 foot stop you can choose pivot foot -dynamic 1-on-1 you have read the defense is over playing on catch crossover to go baseline) -Dribbling right: Right foot is the pivot foot (dribble right step left) -Dribbling Left: Left foot is pivot foot (dribble left step right) A key teaching point is to have the players emphasize a weight shift to the pivot foot. When this is done correctly it is impossible to move the pivot foot first. If no weight shift occurs the pivot foot will lift or shuffle. Note: Coach switches which ball they will drop.

4-8 Phase A: 1 on 0 - No Defense Each player w/ a ball line up 3pt line Coach faces athletes at middle of foul line w/ two balls F. Both balls are held out at shoulder height. G.

3 4-8 Phase A: 1 on 0 - No Defense Each player w/ a ball line up 3pt line Coach faces athletes at middle of foul line w/ two balls F. Both balls are held out at shoulder height. G. The coach drops one ball. H. The player must step with their outside foot (to the sidline) to retrieve the ball - The foot closest to the ball moves first ( left foot pivot foot stepping to the left of the coach right foot stepping to the right) - Hold the stork stand to empahsize the footwork I. Now the player must begin his/her dribble to the basket (This time they will use the inside foot to move first) J. Finish at the rim Players practice: Give them time to figure it out for themselves. This is very important when first learning a skill. Ball must be put down BEFORE the pivot foot leaves the floor On-side dribble start footowork used when: -you have etablished a pivot foot on catch ex: release from seal -Dribbling right: Left foot is the pivot foot (short dribble right step left) -Dribbling Left: Left foot is pivot foot (short dribble left step right)

Demo at one hoop when & where you would use crossover footwork SHOW HANDS send them

4 8-15 Phase A: Coach Guides Have the players work on one move at a time, perfecting the footwork. Demo at one hoop when & where you would use crossover footwork SHOW HANDS send them back if they do not Crossover footwork Left side of floor: - Left foot pivot - Step right to crossover - Dribble left hand Right side of floor: - Right foot pivot foot

5 Players on baseline outside the three pt line w/ ball Coach at Attack spot (foul line extended & 3 pt line) - Player pass to coach (one-hand push pass with outside hand) - Players approach coach along the three point line, hands up as if about to receive a pass. Chin to should reading defense - Coach holds the ball with the outside hand (i.e. imagine that the defender has overcommitted) - Player does proper footwork and does a crossover footwork move. - Finish baseline using outside/inside up footwork - Demo when & where you would use outside foot push footwork Same drill as above except: -Coach holds the ball with the inside hand (i.e. imagine that the defender is trailing) - Player Show hands while approaching the coach -Player curls to the basket using outside foot push footwork -- Player finishes with either a layup (U12) or a jump shot (likely jump shot because help defense will come) - Step left to crossover - Dribble right hand On the left side of the floor: -Curl right foot as pivot step left Dribble with right hand On the right side of the floor: -Curl left foot as pivot step right Dribble with left hand Min Phase B Coach plays guided defence. A. Players self toss to the attack spot, run to get ball. B. Coach gives them a read of either middle or baseline. C. Players must anticipate by shoulder checking (sneak a peek) where the coach is playing. Error Detect and Correct Reading the Defense (Coach) Use crossover if coach over plays Outside foot push if coach trails Shoot if coach gaps

1-7 Phase C: 1 v 1 Offense advantage DAY 2 Progression Footwork Dynamic 1 on 1 Attack Load the Drill: Add a second line of defenders (baseline & lane line intersect circled athlete in dig A) to the

- If the coach holds the ball with the outside hand the defender must touch the inside hand (one w/out the ball) of the coach before playing defense.

7 1-7 Phase C: 1 v 1 Offense advantage DAY 2 Progression Footwork Dynamic 1 on 1 Attack Load the Drill: Add a second line of defenders (baseline & lane line intersect circled athlete in dig A) to the inside of the offensive players. - On the pass both players run out to the coach. - If the coach holds the ball with the outside hand the defender must touch the inside hand (one w/out the ball) of the coach before playing defense. (crossover footwork to go baseline) Note: This creates a one-second advantage for the offensive player. OR - If the ball is held with the inside hand the defender must circle behind the offensive player & coach who is going to take the dribble jump shot. (outside foot push) Dig A Phase C: 1 v 1 active defence A. Two lines on the baseline. One line has a ball. B. Offensive player passes the ball to the coach, who is at the

8 13-20 top, and then cuts to the attack spot. C. When the offensive player starts to run the first defensive player in the other line runs out to play defence. D. Live one on one Phase D : 1 v 1 game situation A. The players form two lines with the balls at the top. B. One defender is on the passing line defending the wing player. C. The player with the ball attacks the paint. D. The defender helps and recovers. E. The wing player slides to open space. F. On the catch it is live 1 on 1. The defender is only faking a hand and foot into the drive line. Be sure that the passer works on dribbling with the outside hand. Debrief Ask Questions & let the athletes think! Don t simply talk at them - What are the four different types of pivots? (A: Front-right; Front-left; Reverse-right; Reverse-left) - What deteres which foot is your pivot foot? (A: the one that hits the floor first) - Which foot is your pivot foot when you do a 2 foot jump stop? (A: either I can choose) - What are the two types of footwork we discussed today? (A: crossover & on-side (outside foot push) - When would you use cross over footwork? (A: when you can choose your pivot foot or when you have anticipated that your defender is over playing you top-side on the wing catch crossover to go baseline) - When would you use outside foot push or on-side footwork? (A: when you have established a pivot

9 foot 1-2 stop or releasing a seal OR you have anticipated your defense is trailing behind you on the wing catch) - What is a one second advantage? (A: when you have a slight advantage over your defender) - How would you get a one second advantage? (A: your defender cheats to steal ; your defender is recovering from help defense; you read your defender BEFORE you catch the ball)
