About WBCA'S Offensive
Basketball Drills...
While the highest-scoring basketball players are
usually those with the most talent, the highest-scoring teams are those that
run their offense efficiently. Now you can boost your team's point totals-and
victory totals-by using WBCA's Offensive Basketball Drills to improve
your offensive execution.
The top collegiate women's basketball coaches in the nation have put together
their most effective offensive practice drills into this ultimate point-producing
manual. Developed by the Women's Basketball Coaches Association, this drill
collection was compiled by legendary coaches such as Tennessee's Pat Summitt,
Old Dominion's Wendy Larry, Kansas' Marian Washington, Nebraska's Paul
Sanderford, and Clemson's Jim Davis.
In chapter 1, "Movement Drills," you'll learn how to develop players who
can cut, slash, pivot, explode, and stop on a dime. Everyone handles the
ball in today's game, and chapter 2, "Dribbling Drills," provides the framework
for developing outstanding ballhandling skills from all five players on the
floor. In chapter 3, "Passing Drills," you'll learn how to create skillful
passers who understand when and where to deliver the pass so that it leads
to a scoring opportunity.
Chapter 4, "Screening Drills," includes detailed breakdowns and coaching
tips for building screening drills into your practices. Once your players
develop an uncanny knack for getting open, the drills in chapter 5, "Shooting
Drills," ensure they've got the tools to finish the job. They will, however,
miss on occasion. When they do, chapter 6, "Rebounding Drills," ensures they'll
control the boards.
Some teams attack quickly, others alternate their pace to catch their defenders
off guard. Whatever your transition plan, use the information in chapter
7, "Transition Drills," to make sure your players are effective in putting
it to action. In chapter 8, "Situation Drills," you'll learn how to get that
bucket when you most need it.
Accompanied by detailed instructions and illustrations, 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 facet of the offensive attack, making it easy to fine-tune your
offense in practice so that it fires on all cylinders during
games.
What they are saying...
"To improve as a coach, you must continue to study the game. WBCA's Offensive
Basketball Drills are a great way to improve."
- Van Chancellor, Head Coach and General Manager,
Houston Comets
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.
