2.03 SHOOTING

(h) ASSIST FROM FOUR METRES DIAGONALLY IN FRONT OF THE KORF

Exercising all types of shot where the assist is given from four metres diagonally in front of the korf

Groups of four per korf. One fixed assist player who stands roughly four metres diagonally in front of the korf. The remaining three rotate continuously.

A. Running-in shots: Number 3 passes to Number 1 and runs to Number l’s place. Number 1 passes to the assist player, Number 2, and runs through for a running-in shot. Number 4 rebounds.

B. As A, the assist player now gives the pass too late on purpose so that taking the shot becomes more diffi­cult (for different possibilities, see “difficult running-in shots” below)

The assist player is clearly in a less than ideal position, but a position that in matches is more the rule than the exception. It is therefore useful to train this situation. Sco­ring from the resulting shot is more difficult, especially if a defender is introduced.

Number 4 becomes a fixed defender for Numbers 1 and 3, who take running-in shots in turn.

C. Number 3 throws to Number 1 and runs to the front. Number 1 plays to Number 2 and takes a veering-off shot. Number 4 rebounds and Number I goes to the post.

D. As C, but now veer-off to the other side.

E. As C, but Number 1 plays the ball to Number 2 and runs up to Number 2, getting the ball back and shooting with a quarter turn. Number 4 rebounds. Number 1 runs to the korf.

F. As E, but Number 2 keeps the ball until Number 1 makes a sharp movement in the direction of the korf to take a running-in shot,
