1 on 1 stops
 | 1 coachesclipboard.ca Coach out top passes to attacker 2 on the wing, defender 1 closes out from a gap position, play to a stop or score with a limit of three dribbles (or two at higher levels), then 1 immediately returns to his gap position and defends the next attacker (coach passes a second ball), continue until he has defended all the other players, then switch the defender. 1 must move on air time and not sag, hoping for a missed shot. Close out with high hands, but shoulders lower than the attacker's shoulders. Repeat the drill with attackers in a corner, or with coach on a wing and attackers out top. Variation - coach skip passes from the other wing with X1 in a help position. See Defending - Duke driving line, UConn halfcourt 1 on 1, Weakside close-out. |
