Gator Rebounding

Players needed: 8 or more

A team drill that encompasses boxing out, getting the rebound and throwing an outlet pass.

• Divide the team into four lines – two under the basket, and one on each sideline (outlets), free throw line extended.
• One player from each of the lines under the basket steps out to the free throw line.  When the coach shoots, these players box each other out and fight for the rebound.
• The player who gains control of the rebound passes to the first person in one of the outlet lines and they take off down the floor together.
• The player who did not get the rebound should already be running down the court to defend the 2-on-1.  Meanwhile, another group has stepped out and has started the drill.
• After finishing the 2 on 1, all three players fill new lines in the drill.
