About WBCA'S Defensive
Basketball Drills...
Tenacious and technically sound defense is what
makes the top women’s basketball teams of today stand out from the crowd.
WBCA’s Defensive Basketball Drills offers a superior collection
of defensive drills and tactics to help your team shine in this key facet
of the game.
WBCA’s Defensive Basketball Drills contains 92 drills and strategies
chosen by the top collegiate coaches throughout the United States. The drills
and strategies teach you specific aspects of individual and team defense.
The easy-to-follow format includes detailed diagrams and clear instructions
that will help you execute drills and run more effective practice sessions.
These elite coaches have shared their most effective defensive drills, making
this book the only defense manual you’ll need. Legendary coaches such
as Tennessee’s Pat Summitt, Old Dominion’s Wendy Larry, Illinois’
Theresa Grentz, Notre Dame’s Muffet McGraw, and Georgia’s Andy
Landers are among the contributors to the book, which is compiled by the
Women’s Basketball Coaches Association.
Each drill describes the purpose, procedure, key coaching points, and possible
variations to increase difficulty or competitiveness. The drills are grouped
according to a key skill or feature of the defense, making it easy to sharpen
your defense to stop even the strongest offensive attacks.
WBCA’s Defensive Basketball Drills is the perfect complement
to the WBCA’s Offensive Basketball Drills book. Used together,
these books provide the complete package of practice activities to work on
both ends of the court.
About the
editor...
Founded in 1981, the Women's Basketball Coaches Association (WBCA) is the
largest such organization in the United States. Its mission is to promote
women's basketball by unifying coaches at all levels to develop a reputable
identity for the sport of women's basketball and to foster and promote the
development of the game in all of its aspects as an amateur sport for women
and girls.
The WBCA is involved in several events and clinics throughout the year,
including: the High School All-America Game (televised on ESPN2), the three-day
educational Coaches' Academy, WBCA Premier Basketball Camps, the WBCA All-Star
Challenge, the Coaches vs. Cancer Challenge, Coaching Clinics across the
nation, and Sears Collegiate Champions (SCC) program. Through these events
the WBCA not only tries to highlight exceptional talent among women and girl
players but also provide opportunities for coaches at all levels to better
themselves.
In addition to the activities that the WBCA puts on and sponsors, they have
an extensive awards program through which the best, brightest, and most talented
athletes, coaches, and contributors to women's basketball are honored. There
is also the annual WBCA National Convention held in conjunction with the
NCAA Women's Final Four and their three publications (Coaching Women's
Basketball, At the Buzzer, and Fastbreak Alert) which provide
coverage on all aspects of women's basketball from high school to
professional.
