Basketball Defence

Take a look at this submission from Meghan.  A great example of basketball defence that can work with all age groups.

From Meghan…
A basketball drill that I find really works well for my team is one called the Ontario Drill.

The team lines up along the sideline starting at half court.
The coach tosses the ball and the first 2 players in line fight for it and then play 1 on 1.
The next player in line then runs in and touches center court, and plays defence as the 2 players who played one on one come back up the floor for 2 vs 1.
The next 2 in line go to touch center and they then play 3 vs 2 the other way.
Finally, the 2 players who were on defence play 1 vs 1 and the drill repeats.

It’s great to teach the defence how to rotate when a player gets caught up!
