Chris Holtmann Conversion Defense System

By Brian Williams on January 29, 2017

Chris Holtmann Conversion Defense System

I am a big believer that half court defense starts full court and that you can’t be a great defensive team without being great in converting to defense to force your opponent to play against your half court defense.

The video is 5 minutes of Ohio State Coach Chris Holtmann going through his Conversion Defense System.

His system utilizes the 3 rebounders to the offensive glass when the shooter lifts for the shot, along with a fullback and halfback. Coach Meyer called the 3 offensive rebounders the “tailbacks”

Coach Holtmann goes into the initial roles for the fullback and halfback.

Make sure your sound is on as you watch.

The video is a You Tube video.
