INTERMEDIATE 

• Have two lines of players side-by-side on one or both sides of the coach (2 or 4 lines total - 4 shown in the diagram), standing near the shooter position on one or both sides of the floor (coach standing a few steps in from the point position with balls - behind the players). The first two players in each line on both sides of the coach (or two separate coaches - not shown in the diagram) should be facing the corners.  This drill can take place in one or both ends of the floor.  

• • Variation #1 (7 min):  "LB With A Chaser."  The coach identifies one of the two lines as having a head start over the other.  The coach then blows a first whistle after preemptively rolling or bouncing a ball into either corner, with the identified first player pursuing the loose ball and the second player perhaps leaving on a second whistle.  The second player should follow the play closely, on the defensive side of the ball, battling if the player drops the ball.  Otherwise, the object of the drill is for the player with the head start to scoop the ball and run past the defender (ideally towards the middle) and eventually pass or flip the ball back to the coach. The coach also has the option of blowing the play dead at their discretion, trying to keep a "flow" to the drill.

• • Players should be encouraged to compete against different players each time through the drill.
