Ballhandling

Playname : Push & pull


1

each player needs a ball.
Players also need to keep head up,looking at other end of court or a coach.
Space your players accordinally.
Players stand still for this drill.Starting with the right hand have them dribble a low,no higher than knee level,dribble.They must push it and pull it back while dribbling so it will look like a "v" while bouncing.Hand control is learned from this.It`s harder than it looks like.
Players need to have ball bouncing in a straight line too,not away from their body.
To pull the ball,their hand should be a little `over center` of the ball,and to push it,the same ,but reverse.It take plenty of hand and wrist action here.Stress ball control.

Do the right side first and then the left side.If they just have to peep at the ball or dribble a little higher than knee high thats ok untill they learn it.
