Basketball Drills 3-2-1 Shooting

This drill is from the Arizona Basketball Coaching newsletter.

If you would like to be added to their mailing list, please email me you

1) Name
2) School or team
3) Coaching Position

I will pass the information along to the Arizona coaching staff.  Their monthly newsletter includes plays, basketball drills, and information about their basketball program.

You don’t have to run the drill in this exact format and can modify it to meet the needs and skills of the players you coach and your objectives.

3 IN A ROW:

Diagram created with FastDraw

Player/Group starts on Spot X1. They must make 3 consecutive shots before moving to Spot X2.

On Spot X2, the player/group must make 3 consecutive shots to advance to Spot X3. They have two opportunities to make 3 consecutive shots before they return to the previous Spot X1.

Each spot begins on a make. (i.e. The player/group completes Spot X1 advancing to Spot X2.

Basketball Drills1

At Spot X2 the player/group misses their first two shots but makes two consecutive shots. On the opportunity to make the third shot at Spot X2, the shooter misses, counting as one chance.

 

 
The player/group misses again followed by making two consecutive shots. If the player/group makes their third consecutive shot they advance to Spot X3. If the player/group misses the third shot they return to Spot X1.)

2 IN A ROW :

Upon completing 3 IN A ROW at Spot X5, the player/group remains at Spot X5 continuing the pattern back to the initial starting position, Spot X1. The player/group must make two consecutive shots before moving to the next spot.

They now have one opportunity to make two consecutive shots before they return to the previous spot X1. Each spot begins on a make. If the player/group does not complete 2 IN A ROW on the first Spot X5, they must remain on Spot X5 but return to the first portion of the drill completing 3 IN A ROW.

1 IN A ROW :

The player/group does not start on a make. (i.e. On Spot X3,)

On the first attempt the player/group makes their shot, the player/group advance to Spot X4. If on the first attempt at Spot X4 the player/group misses, they return to Spot X3.

If on the first attempt at Spot X4 the player/group makes their shot, they advance to Spot X5.) If the player/group does not complete 1 IN A ROW on the first Spot X1, they must remain on Spot X1 but return to the first portion of the drill completing 2 IN A ROW.

Upon completing 2 IN A ROW at Spot X1, the player/group remains at Spot X1 continuing the pattern back to Spot X5. The player/group must make 1 IN A ROW before moving to the next spot. They now have zero opportunities to make 1 IN A ROW before they advance to the next spot.

The first player to complete the sequence wins. The drill should be timed and charted for accuracy.
