This drill focuses on eliminating the habit for players to want to hit or bat the ball down before catching it.

Have your players form four lines, one at each corner of the court, and then have one player stand underneath the hoop –they’ll just be starting the drill off before going to the back of one of the lines.  The player underneath the hoop will start the drill by making a layup. As soon as the players in the two lines on the same side of the court see the ball go through the rim, they both break into a full sprint down the court along the sidelines.
