Player Development: Diamond Defensive Drill - FastModel Sports
Published 07/06/2018 Favorite Send to FastDraw Email Print EmbedAbout This Play/Drill
I firmly believe that every team should work on defensive closeouts and lateral slides in some way EVERY practice. This drill incorporates both of these skills into one drill. Coaches can set up multiple diamonds on the court. Have each player go 3-4 times then switch with a partner. Make the drill competitive by timing players.
