Coaches are always searching for new and interesting shooting drills and ways to ensure players are placing a value on each shot. Adding an element of time or target is a great way to add some value to your drills and introduce some competition into even the simplest aspects of your practice.
The athletes at the Basketball Australia Centre of Excellence average 2500 shots each week outside of structured practice, so it is important the coaches continue to find ways to keep drills interesting and have players always competing and working towards a score or target.
This video pieced together by Centre of Excellence Men’s assistant coach demonstrates some of the drills used by the program to work on “the master skill”.
