Basketball: Small-sided Games from @CoachFernandez1

Notes from Aaron Fernandez and CoachesClinic: I steal, I share. There is a lot to digest here. 

Director of Player Development/Video coordinator (Davidson)

Free shooting is unrelated to shooting against a hand up, a closeout defender, coming off a screen, or one-on-one. 

Be creative while coaching one-on-one, two-on-two, three-on-three. (Constraints that work for your style... constraints of space, dribbles, time.)

The doghouse is in the middle and the coach decides on "incentives" or "training" in the doghouse, like pushups. 

This is a "laddering" drill for one-on-one. 

Each "team" has their own goal (first basket determines which). 60 second games. With four baskets, we could rotate players between 4 on 4 at one end and sideways at the other. 

Too chaotic? 

Subs are behind. We usually station the sub group at half court. 

Whenever possible, we don't want players in lines, so maybe not for us.
