Criss-Cross Shooting (Pregame Warm-up)
Drill starts with post shooting and gradually moves out. The right side has two basketballs, one in the hands of the first two players. The left side line has two basketballs also, but the first person in line does not have a ball. The drill starts with #5 cutting down under the basket and then out to the right low block calling for the ball. #1 passes the ball into #5 who catches and executes a post move to score. As soon as #1 passes the ball into #5 on the low block, he begins his movement underneath the basket. |

Criss-Cross Shooting (Pregame Warm-up)
The first shooter, #5, gets his own rebound and takes the ball on the dribble along the baseline and up the right sideline and gives the ball to the next available player. #1 is now underneath the basket and begins his cut out to the left low block calling for the ball in the post. #4 passes the ball inside to #1 and then begins his cut underneath the basket. |

Criss-Cross Shooting (Pregame Warm-up)
After each player has taken two shots on each side of the floor, the players move the line back to the free throw line area. Same action and rotation. #1 cuts down and then over to the free throw line for the mid-range jump shot. #5 passes to #1 and then begins his cut down and into the free throw line area. |

Criss-Cross Shooting (Pregame Warm-up)
#5 comes to the ball with hands up calling for the ball. #5 catches and faces and shoots the mid-rand jump shot. While this is going on, #1 from the previous shot, has rebounded his own shot and taken the ball underneath and off the court, up the right sideline. #4 passes to #5 and then begins his cut down and into the free throw line area. |

The last stage of this drill is to move the shots back to the 3 point line area. Again, you should move back to the next area after each player has taken two shots coming from each side of the floor. |

Criss-Cross Shooting (Pregame Warm-up)
If you have players who you DO NOT want shooting the 3 point shot, have them catch, face and shot fake and attack the right or left elbow area on the dribble drive (one or two dribbles) for a pull-up 15 foot jump shot. You could also have them attack the basket for a two foot power lay-up. |
