Coaching Points

  • Screener approaches from behind the defender — quiet, controlled steps to avoid a foul
  • Cutter reads when the screen is set before committing to the cut
  • Use a V-cut before the back screen to pull the defender into position
  • Ball handler delivers the pass the moment the cutter clears the screener's shoulder
  • Cutter attacks the goal directly after using the screen — do not decelerate
