RB Jump Shot from 9M

Instructions

1. 1CB advances with the ball toward the center of the 9m line
2. 2RB times an attacking run from the right backcourt toward 9m
3. 3CB delivers a leading pass into RB's path on the right side
4. 4RB catches in stride without breaking momentum
5. 5RB launches an explosive jump shot targeting the far corner

Coaching Points

• Lead the RB with the pass — deliver it into space, not to the body
• RB: catch and jump in one motion, don't kill your momentum with an extra step
• Keep the elbow high on the wind-up to get the shot over the block
• Aim for the far corner — the GK will cheat toward the near side
• CB: your pass timing is everything — too late and the RB is off-balance

Common Mistakes

• CB delivers the pass behind the RB, forcing an awkward catch and lost momentum
• RB takes an extra gathering step after the catch instead of jumping directly
• Dropping the elbow during the wind-up, resulting in a flat shot into the block
• RB starts the run too early and arrives at 9m before the pass is ready
• Shooting at the near corner where the GK is already positioned
