In this technique, the team learns how to defend their ball and utilize pivots and fakes for creating an area for passing the ball.

Swing Passing:
In this technique, the team makes up 4 lines in court corners. The team then makes a one or two-handed pass out to their right in front of the player who starts running along the sideline or baseline. Then the passer reaches the end of the line they have passed to. The passing drill is specifically intended for use with younger players or as a warm-up drill. This exercise will strengthen the passing of players on the run and the ability to catch and transfer without dribbling.

Bronze Passing:

Starting on the baseline on the key’s ends, as they sprint down the court to the other baseline, pairs of players will pass one basketball back and forth using a variety of throws.

It is a fantastic warm-up passing drill that in a limited period delivers a lot of passes. For players to train, like throws of varying lengths and styles.
