How to help a chronic bad passer Version 2

off topic - but just checked out my notes - yes a Ralph Miller Oregon State drill - only coach inducted into Hall of Fame between 1986 and 1991 when Bob knight got put in - there are no names on that list that did not know how to actually coach and teach players to play better.

good outcome all round,

if you found those drills good, there is another variation, allow the payer with the ball 3 bounces , but they cannot do the "Me me me " of head down dribble forward charge to the ring - so beloved of parents who call out "go all the way - glorious fruit of my loins ".

Explain they are only allowed to bounce the ball if the defence is too good for them to get a pass off ( GREATLY emphasis that they are actually admitting that the defensive player is better at defence than they are at offence !!!) - and they can then dribble sidways or to the rear ( or backturn) to avoid the 5 second holding the ball call, and that they must keep their head up[ as they are actually looking to pass - this will get rid of the "netball" accusation, and also get all of your players to act like pure point guards .

(there is a further option of them completing their dribble-to-pass option and then if they have not found a pass, turning their back totally to the defence - which is a silent signal for another player to come running at high speed for a curl past them for a hand-off and then the first player does a frantic reverse turn and dives to the ring for the pass back - the two defensive players essentially both screen each other out of the play - this was a fast break press-breaker drill for a old time US hall of fame college coach - I forget who ATM - Miller ?)

In the full court - You can also allow them one ( max 2) dribble drives to the basket for layups ( not jump shots - Layuips)
