Halfcourt Weave Warmup Drill

Purpose: To drill layups and allow the players some light jogging.

Organization: Players form three lines at half-court. One line is at mid-court and others are near either sideline. The first man in the middle line has a ball.

Procedure:

1. 1 passes to 2, who passes to 3 cutting to the basket for a layup.

2. 1 runs behind 2 and goes to the basket to rebound 3’s shot. 2 runs to the corner after his pass to 3.

3. After 3’s shot, 1 rebounds and passes to 2, who is cutting to the basket from the corner, for a layup. 3 cuts to the corner opposite from 2 after his shot. 1 cuts to the empty corner after passing to 2.

4. 3 cuts back from his corner to rebound 2’s shot. 1 cuts back from his corner to receive a pass from 3 for a layup. Now all players have shot and rebounded.

Coaching Points:

1. Players should hustle to all spots and focus on making all layups.

2. The ball should not hit the ground after shots

3. Every player should hustle to rebound when it is his job to do so
