While playing basketball kids inherently realize that they must move off ball in order to receive a pass. In addition setting picks seems more natural and good ball movement with passes to the open man come naturally. This drill gets kids on a basketball court with their lacrosse sticks in a situation where it is not easy to score. Coaches should enforce the importance of passing to the open man.
- Divide the kids into two equal teams, dividing long poles across the teams
- Kids shall play with their helmets and gloves on and will use tennis balls
- Coach shall use a full length basketball court and play 5 on 5
- Start the game with a girls faceoff draw
- Play regular basketball
Rules
- No stick checks, defense should be played with your feet
- No body checks, if the ball is on the ground, coach can stop play to make sure injuries don't occur
- Players can block passes without hitting the opponents stick
- If a stick check occurs while shooting, its considered a shooting violation and the player shall get two free throw
- Since scoring will be low, with free throws, if the first one goes in, the player does not shoot the second one
