Passing

Passing is the heartbeat of efficient team basketball. Great passers make teammates better, create high-percentage shots, and keep the offense flowing with pace and purpose. This category focuses on developing the vision, timing, and technique needed to deliver accurate passes under pressure.

Here you’ll find drills and concepts that teach all essential passing skills: chest passes, bounce passes, overhead passes, one-hand passes off the dribble, skip passes, post entries, and lead passes in transition. We also emphasize decision-making, reading the defense, ball protection, and passing angles.

Strong passing builds trust, improves spacing, and helps players understand how to move the defense instead of forcing difficult shots. From youth players learning the basics to advanced teams running complex actions, improving passing raises the level of any offense.

Use this category to develop players who make smart, sharp, and unselfish plays every possession.
