Post Ready Drill
This is a great, quick hitting drill that will get your post players ready to receive the ball in the low post and score. It will also give your perimeter players a chance to work on post entry passes. Your team will be divided into two sets (post players and perimeter players) with your post players broken up into two groups, one group underneath the basket and one group at the top of the key. Your perimeter players will be divided on each wing. The drill starts with #5 underneath the basket throwing the ball out to the wing player #1. #5 will get in a good, wide, low stance and move up the lane calling for the ball. #1 will pass the ball back to #5 who will look to score on one of his power post moves to the basket. #1 will then go to the end of his line. |

#5 will get his own rebound out of the basket and throw the ball back to #2 on the right wing. #5 will then repeat his prior action and cut hard to the ball, moving up the lane looking for good post position on the right low block. Now #2 will throw the reverse pass to the top of the key post man #6. #5 will turn and seal and look for the high / low entry pass from #6. After #6 passes the ball into #5, he will cut to the basket and get to the end of the post line underneath the basket. |

#5 will again get his own rebound out of the net and throw the ball out to #7 on top. Again, #5 will move up the lane looking for good post position while #1 makes the post entry pass to #5. #1 will then move to the back of his line after passing to #5. #5 will catch and execute one of his power post moves to the basket. |

#5 once again rebounds his own shot out of the net and passes the ball back to #2 on the left wing. Again, #5 moves up the lane for good post position. This time #2 will penetrate in the lane and look to dump the ball off to #5 for the layup. #5 must have his hands up and ready to receive the ball for the quick shot. |

Post Ready Drill
This is the last shot in the series for this particular post player. #2, who just drove the ball in the lane and passed to the post player, will return to the end of his perimeter line. #5 will get his own shot out of the net and pass the ball to the next post player underneath the basket. #5 would then go to the end of the post line on the top of the key. #4, waiting underneath the basket now with the ball, would pass the ball out to the right wing player #2 and the next post series would begin. You should be able to get through all of your post players in a few minutes time. Repeat if time or if you feel necessary. |
