Shooting Drill – Pressure Free Throws

If you’re having trouble making free throws in games use this drill to simulate pressure in your practice attempts. This drill is good to end practices.

Keys to success: Players must use their regular game routines. If you have extra hoops available you may want to break your team into groups of 3-6 players to speed each competition up and minimize player inactivity. Winners from that first round can play in a final competition to determine the overall free throw champion.

Elapsed Time: This game usually takes five to ten minutes with a team of 12 players.
