Instructions
- 1A1 initiates fast break in center with two supporting wings
- 2A2 and A3 sprint to opposite flanks simultaneously
- 3D1 and D2 try to cut passing lanes and limit options
- 4A1 must read defense and pass to most open wing
- 5Receiver continues attack, can pass to backing player
- 6Focus on width, spacing, and quick decision-making
Coaching Points
- Wings must sprint to the sideline — width is what creates the advantage
- A1 reads the first defender to commit, then passes to the opposite side
- Keep the ball moving; one extra dribble lets the defense reset
- The third pass should be a shot, not another pass
- Call out defender positions so A1 makes the right read quickly
