Do you want to hold the basketball with precision? Although,
handling a basketball at the beginning is hard nut to crack, but nothing is
impossible in the world. “Practice makes a man perfect”, so a continuous
practice can improve your game of basketball. But, firstly you have to improve your ball
handling ability and this is only possible with practice. Keeping this thing in
mind, D1 United STL is here; with this program our mission is to improve the
basket ability, aspirations, basketball IQ, and andommitment to the personal
success of the youth sports in our programs.
Basketball is an enormous sport to play and mainly
considered it as youth sports. They show great interest in the basketball court
that is why; they can easily learn how to control the basketball and get
success. There are many youth basketball players who can dribble the basketball
very well, but struggle to control it in tight situations. The main reason
behind this lack of interest, although there are plenty of reasons as to why
someone may struggle with handling the basketball with control.
Larry Hughes is a former basketball player of Philadelphia
and is now the head coach and CEO at D1 United STL. He is the best active coach
in the game today. His main is to provide skill training, basketball education,
and leadership opportunities for all children. Here, children are given opportunities
to maximize their talent, grow within the sport of basketball, and develop
leadership qualities for success both on and off the court. D1 United STL,
time-to-time organized a youth basketball tournament to encourage and to sharp
their player’s skill.
Larry Hughes generally focuses on one of the most important
skills while playing a basketball is the technique of passing a ball to other
players. There are many basketball passing drills you can use to help your
team. All of them are aimed to enhance your player’s proficiency in a
completing passes, catching the ball safely, or to enhance their anticipation. But
there are two basic fundamental passes; a diagonal pass and a
line pass. One can play the game by learning just these two passing styles.
Diagonal
Passes
This is one of the basketball passing drills to help get
your teamed warmed up and ready for the next sets of drills. It also enhances
their speed, passing, and catching.
Have a group of three to five players
stand along the free throw circle or half-court circle. Then instruct them to
pass the ball diagonally to the players across them. Instruct them from time to
time to use a particular passing technique before changing it. This is a
fast-paced drill, so make sure they pass them quickly right after receiving the
ball.
Line
Passing
Have your team create two lines
parallel to the half-court line. The first person in each line must face each
other.
Give the ball to the first player in
the first line, and then have him pass the ball using the two-handed chest pass
to the first player in the second line. After the ball is passed, have the
first passer run to the end of the SECOND line. When the first player on the
SECOND line passes the ball to the second person in the first line, he too needs
to run towards the back of the FIRST line.
When the drill is completed, have your
team move back 10 feet away and repeat the drill process. After this is
completed, have them move ten feet away again and repeat the cycle.
After you have completed the set of
three drills, go back to the first distance (ten feet) and redo the drill using
another passing technique. Keep performing the drills until your team has
covered two-handed bounce passes and two-handed overhead passes. Don't forget
to move 10 feet back after completing each set.
These basketball passing drills are
great yet effectively simple, and D1 United STL attains these two passing
techniques in their game. If you also want to join our academy or want to play
