Using this sequence of skills and drills will give your players a clear understanding of their expectations on defense.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStance is critical, and like many fundamentals you have to work on it every day practice. Coach Allocco teaches and demonstrates his Form Drills which focus on building the technique for on-ball defense, denial, help side sag\/traditional, and post stances. After showing the particular stance he demonstrates progressive drills to enhance the skill. These drills teach defenders to move their feet, which makes them harder to screen and discourages drives to the middle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Form Drills progress into drills that put players in game-like situations and end “live.” Closeouts, shell defense, and ball screens are featured in these drills. You can use these drills to teach the skills required to build this style of man-to-man defense, making things tangible and achievable. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCommunication is the basis for everything you'll do defensively. Allocco believes communication is vital to not only make the defense better but to help your players learn. Allocco shares the terminology he uses and demonstrates how effective it can be to defending the ball screen. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis video will give you a variety of ideas on how to stop and frustrate your opponent with defense by repeating the practice of good habits and aggressive play. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduced at the Spring 2010 Wisconsin Dells (WI) clinic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e80 minutes. 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Championship Productions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47407547908284,"sku":"CHMP-BD04069","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/3832\/2364\/files\/81AB0J1kmrL.jpg?v=1788534032","url":"https:\/\/store.virventures.com\/products\/frankallocco-skillsanddrillsforbuildinghardnosedhalfcourtteamdefense","provider":"Virventures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
