These drills are not position-specific, but rather emphasize developing the total player.  Specifically, this drill work is intended to improve a player's:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Ball-handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Ability to finish at the rim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Footwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Passing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Shooting form \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003eDEFENSE \u0026amp; REBOUNDING\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDefense and rebounding are drilled at the beginning of every practice to set the tone for the day.  These drills allow players to work on multiple skills at one time.  Altman also keeps score between the squads to make it more competitive.  Practice does not progress until these drills are performed correctly.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn all defenses you have to be able to guard the player with the ball. Coach Altman builds his defensive system from the ground up through half-court and full-court 1-on-1 drills. Through the 1v1 drills you can \u003cb\u003eeasily evaluate which players need improvement\u003c\/b\u003e and more importantly which players are competitors and do not like getting beat! Close outs and rebounding are taught through a competitive 2-on-2 drill. Lastly, Altman walks through six different ways to defend and rotate on ball screens from a 4-on-4 set up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003eFULL-COURT\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRather than simply running his team, Coach Altman improves his team's conditioning through a variety of full-court drills. Altman demonstrates three of his most popular full court drills that any coach should have as part of their practice plan. These drills force players to play in transition with and without numbers and make shots while tired. The demonstration is good for any new coach, but his “fine-tuning” instruction and “nuggets” of information are helpful even for the more seasoned coach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoach Altman demonstrates a variety of drills on the court that will help your players focus on fundamentals at all times to make themselves better basketball players, and to make your team better. These drills, working from individual all the way to team drills, focus on individual fundamentals on a daily basis, and then apply those to a team setting. All players learn the drills in a game-like setting instead of making drills “position-specific.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncorporate this drill work into your practices and prepare to beat good teams! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduced at the Spring 2011 Las Vegas (NV) clinic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e71 minutes. 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Championship Productions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47407547056316,"sku":"CHMP-BD04100A","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/3832\/2364\/files\/91M8-SxKieL.jpg?v=1788534021","url":"https:\/\/store.virventures.com\/products\/danaaltman-drillsforacompetitiveteampradtice","provider":"Virventures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
