Three ball wall drill

The player stands ten to fifteen feet from a wall. He/she will need three basketballs.

Instructions

The player starts by performing a chest pass at their height towards the wall. The ball will return as a bounce pass. As the ball hits the ground the player makes another chest pass towards the same spot on the wall. They practice with two balls at first then introduce the third ball as they get use to the rhythm. The balls will be released such that the balls will be one in hand on hitting the wall and the third hitting the floor on the way back. 9 A fourth ball can be used if the player has fast hands).

Variations

• After the player gets the movement down they can increase the level of intensity by slowly moving in towards the wall getting as close as five feet.

Tips

• The players will learn to keep hands up at all times and to follow through with their pass.
