Initial layout and description of the Wheel Spacing ‘6’Open
Players are placed spaced and distributed in the three-point line (we do not recommend using cones because concrete in excess of the concept of space and then you have the players to ‘seek’ the cone at the time of play.
The wheel starts and the player who has the ball performs a pass to a teammate on the other side of the header. Thereupon, the player who gave the pass to cut toward the basket. Meanwhile, the players that were on the side of the pin, move to replace. In this way there will be a new player at the position that was momentarily empty, and the player who was cutting you will need the corner space of Weak Side released.
After this first movement, is repeated exactly the same on the other side, and so on.
As the exercise does not have any decision-making is fundamental to highlight the timing of the pass and the run-pass (habituate to the request and not to lose sight of your peers as well as the ball).
The exercise ends when all have been repeated position 3 times, or when the coach send to give the final pass to the companion that cuts to the basket so that it finishes.
NOTE: it Is important to remember that this task is only for the print rate to the collective game. The progression prevails and the next step will be to go to pose game situations reduced with opposition (2x2-3x3-4x4-5x5).
Variants
- The signal of the coach:
- that gave the pass and receives a pass on court and ends with an entry to the basket.
- the player who controls the ball moves with the boat for another position and his companions to release and reset the formation of 6 open. In this way varies the location of the exercise and will take advantage of the transfer.
- Pre-determine a number of passes to end (in this way the task happens to be addressed to be autonomous).
