DRILLS TO IMPROVE SKILLS IN BASKETBALL
What is Drills?
 Drills are repetitive training activities which do or
do not use equipment. They are intended to
stimulate a part of a complex movement (e.g., an
upper arm movement) or an elemental segment of
a movement chain (e.g., the transition from a take-
off to a jump).
 Drills practice is the fundamental core of all skill
training. Each sport has its own set of drills for
developing the skills required. Drills
essentially provide the frequent repetition of a skill
that is required for the athlete to progress through
the stages of skill acquisition towards autonomous
skill mastery.

SHOOTING DRILLS
ONE HAND FORM SHOOTING DRILL
Purpose:
. Players work on shooting form.
Drill Setup:
. Players pair up and line up across from each
other on different sides of the lane.
. One player of each pair has a basketball.
SHOOTING DRILLS
How it Works:
. Player with the ball starts by holding it out front
on one hand.
. He then locks and loads into shooting position,
putting the ball into the shooting pocket. The off
hand stays off the ball.
. The player then shoots for the stars.• He goes
through his shooting motion and shoots a high,
soft shot, letting the ball go out in front of him.
. Player holds follow-through until ball hits the
court.
. The opposite player grabs the ball and then goes
through the above steps.
. Once they get the hang of it, each player grabs
their own ball. Set up 3-5 feet from the basket and
take one-handed form shots at the basket.
. If a player makes 3 consecutive shots, he takes a
step back. Repeat until the player reaches the free
throw line.
SHOOTING DRILLS
Purpose
. This drill focuses on coming to a stop under
control, and staying balanced through the jump
shot.
How it Works
. Starting on the right wing, take one dribble
towards the hoop.
. Come to a jump stop at about 10-12 feet.
. Pull up and hit the bank shot.
. Secure your rebound, sprint out to the wing, and
repeat.
