Description: Through the cone dribbling drill

That was a good drill. I will definitely do it more to work on committing less turnovers while dribbling in traffic.

I love this drill.   I’ve used it my whole career from when I was young until now!  Focus on getting to the other side of the cone as quickly as you can.  Pound the ball hard!  You should get winded.  I used shoes here to prove the point that you can use anything to do this drill.  No need for cones or a court!

We will start our cone series with crossovers.  I want them low to the ground, and I want you to move through the cones quickly.  Pound the ball into the ground for 3 dribbles and then cross. One starting on the right side, next set start on the left

Set 1- Crossover

Stay low and get that ball between your legs quickly.  Burst of speed to the other side.  Once you get it through your legs quickly get back into your three dribbles.  One starting on the right side, the next set on the left

Set 2- Between the legs

3 pound dribbles and then quickly behind your back.  Focus on keeping the ball low through the cones and also getting to the other side quickly.  Plant and explode!  First start on the right side and next set on the left

Set- 3 Behind the back

In and outs are a great move in tight spaces.  I want your shoulders, eyes, and feet all connected to the ball.  Fake like you are crossing over and bring it back.  In order to do this you’ll need to pound the ball to keep it in your hand longer.

Set 4- Right hand in and out

Now with the left. Pound the ball then into your in and out quickly.  Use your shoulder, eyes, and legs to shift your defender!

Set 5- Left hand in and out

Now our double moves series.  I want you to really focus on acting like you are going through the cone with every cross, and then quickly crossing back.  Be shifty, have great control, and keep that ball low and tight.

Set 6- Right hand double cross

Now we start with our left hand for our double cross move.  Make it feel like you are moving through the cones and quickly cross it back.  Be shifty and quick.

Set 7- Double cross left hand

Starting in our right hand we will do a between the leg cross.  Pound the ball 3 times first then a quick between the legs like you are going through the cone and then cross back quickly.  Get your defender shifting one way and then go back the other.  Let them reach!

Set 8- Right hand between legs cross

Left hand start this time.  Cross between your legs and cross back quickly.  This is working in traffic so you always want to keep it low and quick.

Set 9- Left hand start between legs cross

This double behind the back is mean to be low and quick.  Again we are working on dribble in tight spaces.  Have this type of control to do 2 behind the backs in a row means you are really getting great control of the basketball in tight spaces.

Set 10- Right hand double behind back

Left hand start with our double behind the back.  This isn’t easy to do!  Keep the behind the back low and tight.  Make sure you are acting like you are going to the other side of the cone and shift back quickly.

Set 11- Left hand double behind the back

2 Ball Stationary Dribbling (beginner)

That went pretty well. Couple of them were hard but I know they will make me better.

2 Ball Stationary Dribbling (Expert)

It went ok. I got the first few really good, but those ones at the end were really difficult.

2 Ball Movement Dribbling

That workout felt good. I will definitely use it before games to get me warmed up.

Great workout. It’s funny because I also have trouble doing the figure 8 going forwards.

Full speed dribbling

Really great drill. However, I think there is an error. The between the legs drill and the behind the back drill have the same video, and different  directions.

3 Dribble Pound Drill

This is the best app ever for my son he is so much better now

Sarah

Most of the sets weren't that difficult, but I could really feel them working on my control.
