In this video  head coach Mike Rhoades takes the full court style of play that Shaka Smart brought to the national spotlight and breaks it down for you to install in your program. You'll learn simple breakdown drills that emphasize little techniques to help your players be in the right place at the right time to wear down opponents.\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFist Cover Press\u0026lt; b\u0026gt;\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo teach the beginnings of the full court havoc system  Rhoades breaks down the rules of the press and the responsibilities of each player. Simple tactics shown help players understand how they should create pressure on the ball handler while staying between them and the basket. \u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 3v3 stunting  Coach Rhoades lays out the foundation of getting teams to play at your pace. Your players will learn how to jump to the ball  see both ball and man  and jump back toward the offensive player. Rhoades also explains why strong communication is a must within the press. \u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDouble Fist Press\u0026lt; b\u0026gt;\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the Double Fist Press  you'll see how VCU creates an element of surprise when they trap. Unlike an aggressive trap that forces players to trap immediately  Rhoades teaches how to be aggressive playing man-to-man defense while forcing opponents out of the middle of floor toward the sideline. As the ball handler dribbles up the floor looking to turn the corner  Rhoades brings a trapping player over once the ball handler turns their head away from the defense.  \u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn order to train a players' ability to recognize when to trap  Rhoades uses a series of build-up drills  starting with 2 on 1 Corral. In this drill  athletes learn to force sideline and speed up the ball handler.  It's important that all players know how to trap so teams cannot use a post player to dribble up the floor.  From there  Rhoades progresses to 2v3 Corral  3v3 Trap the Turn with an Interceptor  and 4v4 Trap Interceptor to teach full court rotations. The goal is not to force or get turnovers right away  but to wear down your opponent and force them to turn the ball over late in the game.\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDiamond Press\u0026lt; b\u0026gt;\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRounding out Rhoades' instruction is the Diamond Press. This press isn't your typical Diamond Press that forces the opponent into corners and chases all over the floor looking for traps. Instead  this version of the Diamond Press uses a series of stunts to get opponents out of the middle of the floor and into a third of the court closest to the sideline. \u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing a 4v4 drill  Rhoades demonstrates how to rotate out of a trap and get into an intercept spot. Once there  players must square up and stunt at the ball handler  allowing them to swing the ball and get into another trap.  \u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a fantastic video to add to your collection  especially if you're looking for a video that will kick your full court pressing defense up a notch!\u0026lt; p\u0026gt;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cit\u003e?This video stands above other press videos because of the breakdown drills.
