What's Inside?

If you want to see a sudden and dramatic improvement in your team's low post scoring, rebounding, and overall toughness and aggression - then this drill collection is just what your team needs!

Rodeo Post Up - An essential (and fun) drill that combines post offense, post defense, and post entry passing

Post Triangle Shooting - This super-efficient drill gets you dozens of high quality inside shots in just a few minutes of practice time. (one of my personal favorites)

One on One Rebounding - This is a great competition drill that stresses the importance collecting defensive rebounds, being strong with the ball and executing a solid outlet pass!

Three on Three Rebounding - Need to "juice up" your practice with some competitive spirit? This awesome drill will have your kids crashing the boards like animals!

Free Throw Blockout Drill - There's nothing more frustrating than giving up an offensive rebound on a free throw. Correct this brutal error with this one simple drill.

Line Rebounding Drill – This drill will really get your players’ competitive juices flowing and get them to understand the importance of rebounding each and every missed shot!

Four on Four Shuffle Rebounding – Trains your kids to locate their man and block out FIRST... then go after the ball.

Box Around the Ball Drill – The best way to teach proper blocking out technique, allowing your players to own the paint and send your team’s rebounding totals skyrocketing!

Power Rebound Drill – If you’re looking for a physical rebounding drill where the emphasis is on toughness, then you’ll love the power rebound drill!

One on One Weakside Rebounding – a great "spatial awareness" drill that trains your players to lock onto dangerous rebounding opponents and aggressively clear them out of the paint!

Five Man Rebounding – This is a great drill that works a multitude of different skills … it’s particularly great if you are short on players for a practice or if you’ve got lots of gym space!

Gopher Box Out Drill – My favorite "game situation" rebounding drill - your players will ask for this one by name!
