MARYLAND SHOOTING

I really like this shooting drill!  I got this drill from Michael Neighbors...from his email group. I used to run this drill at another school...I abandoned running it when I changed jobs.  Having made another change in scenery this past year, I will be adding this drill once again...MARYLAND SHOOTING

It can be a little confusing at first, and that is where the genius of the drill lies...in its chaos!  Chaos can be good for practice...I like to call it ORGANIZED CHAOS!  Organized chaos makes our players think the game instead of just playing the game.   It makes them communicate better!  Wouldn't we all like to communicate better.  If you are a coach, look at this drill. If you are a Pryor Basketball player, look at this drill (you will see it soon!)

Below I have provided the diagram and directions for running the drill... I have also provided the video for the drill.

One last thing...If you have a few minutes (5 or 7 free minutes) read the following article (link below) by Bob Starkey (asst women's coach at Texas A&M), on his website HoopThoughts. it is a really good read. I think it will help me become a better person as well as a better coach in the future.
