You can start this drill working in pairs with a feeder and an attacking player, using the "figure of 8" ("bowtie") movement patterns to familiarise themselves with the footwork and angles. Feeder can pass or feint pass - consider pass type relevent to position and movement type. Attacking player has to make quick decisions where to head next - that doesn't always involve quick movement! Complete a number of reps or could be for a specified time. Progression: have 2 players working simultaneously across the whole third. They can throw to the feeders or each other, BUT only onto moving player Ideally it should be a see-saw effect, so one player is off edge as the other is on as the first pass is received. Progression: Add in defenders. Attacking players still looking to maintain definite movements - offer option to change direction from one hot spot to another mid-run but ONLY if the defender has forced them to do so. Advanced Progression: Add in a GS in circle who uses the outside hotspots and post. This player is looking to balance the court so moves into the 3rd channel not in use as the 2 attackers outside move around.
No sweep around the circle edge Vareity of movement types and speeds, clean angles for change of direction Eyes up, feet under body, hips in direction of travel Clean definite movements and angles off and on the circle edge to force the defenders to make a decision Read and lead communication
