Double Screen Drill

Instructions

1. 1S1 drops to the center to set the first screen while S2 positions just behind
2. 2BH drives through both screens on a long weaving run toward the far side
3. 3S1 rolls upward on a diagonal toward the goal area after BH clears
4. 4S2 rolls on a second diagonal path toward the far shooting zone
5. 5BH delivers the pass to S1 arriving first in the scoring position
6. 6S1 finishes with a jump shot on goal

Coaching Points

• First screen sets; ball handler uses it immediately before the second screen is needed
• Second screen provides insurance — if the defense recovers from the first, use the second
• Ball handler reads in real-time which screen breaks the defender first
• Both screeners roll simultaneously after ball handler clears — force the defense to choose
• Pass to the first roller as they have the inside position near goal

Common Mistakes

• The two screens are set at the same spot instead of staggered, reducing their effectiveness
• Ball handler tries to use both screens at once instead of sequentially
• Second screener is not ready when the ball handler clears the first screen
• Defenders switch cleanly because the screens are too far apart
• The ball handler has already decided their path before reading the defensive reaction
