Shooting and rebounding.

Instructions

2 players on the 3-pointline (team 1) 2 on the blocks (team2).
1 ball. The players on the 3-piontline shoot the ball one after the other. If it goes in they get a point and keep on shooting.
If they miss. The 2 players on the blocks go for the rebound, but the must be in air if they touch the ball.
They can choose to put it back in directly or give alley oop pass to teammate only one pass allowed. they get a point for each score.
The challenge for the rebounding players is to make a good pass in a difficult situation. And also to make a basket from a bad pass.
Remember that the rebounders must be in air if they touch the ball, so their timing has to be perfect.

Go till 24, switch when either team has 12

Variations

let the shooters move around the 3 point area so the bounce of the rim won\‘t be the same all the time.
