Taking the ball into space by receiving on the half turn

Description

In this practice we are focusing on taking the ball into space by receiving on the half turn. The drill begins with the coach passing the ball to the player who sets back and then moves inside to receive agin on the half turn. The player then starts to dribble across. If the coach shouts ‘Turn’ then the players turns, passes the ball to the coach and then drops to the cone. If the coach doesn’t shout turn then the player continues to dribble until they reach the cone where they then pass. The players body shape should be open to be able to receive on the half turn. Each set should consist of 4 - 6 reps and should be completed at least three times.
