4 on 4 ballscreens
 | 1 Ian MacKinnon 4 on 4 shell to defend ballscreens. Screeners can foul. a) Gap 1 ballscreens for 2, X2 calls the coverage, here X1 and X2 defend by gapping, X1 leaves a gap for X2 to go under the screen and recover to 2 (X2 forces 2 to use the screen). X3 is ballside because he is the help on the screener, and would take screener 1 if he slips the screen and gets a pass, X4 would sink to cover 3. |
 | 2 Continue with 4 ballscreening for 2. |
 | 3 Then 3 ballscreens for 2. |
 | 4 2 skips the ball to 1 and repeat, 1 will get ballscreens from 4, 3 and 2. Continue until 1-2-3-4 have been the ballhandler then switch defence and offence, or rotate in new players from the baseline. |
 | 5 b) Shock When 1 ballscreens for 2, X1 makes 2 go vertical, X2 sprints over the screen but under X1, who then sprints with both hands up to recover to 1 on the roll (X1 may have his back to the ball). X3 is again the help on the screener. c) Switch Switch the ballscreens. Progression - 4 on 4 or 5 on 5, live on a ballscreen, make-it take-it, keep score, losers run, winners also run if they don't go 2 for 2 or 3 for 4 from the line. |
