Coaching Points

  • A4 trailer must stay patient — arrive too early and you block the lane
  • Whoever has a 1v0 situation shoots immediately, no extra passes
  • A1 must look to the weak side first to draw defensive help away
  • Spread across the full court width to make the defense cover maximum distance
  • After each pass, the passer continues running to create a fifth threat
