This drill is a free throw shooting drill that is very demanding, and requires a high level of concentration. You need 6 goals; 2 main goals at both ends, and 4 side goals.
Line your players up at one of the end goal (this goal is called heaven). Each player attempts to make 5 free throws in a row. If he does, he's finished with practice. If he doesn't, he goes to purgatory (one of the side goals). He has to make 5 in a row in purgatory in order to get back to heaven and try for 5 in a row there. If he misses any in purgatory, he goes to hell (the goal at the opposite end of heaven). He then has to make 5 in a row to get back to purgatory, and 5 in a row there to get back to heaven. When a player ends up in hell, he has to make 15 free throws in a row to get out of practice.
any number
There will be times when most of your team is in hell. When this happens, you can change what was being used as a purgatory goal into a hell goal. Then you won't have 10 players using one goal to shoot on. I usually set a time limit on the game, or you may be in the gym all night. I set a 20-minute limit. If anyone is still shooting after 20 minutes, I give them a heavy punishment (suicides, horses, etc...). Although no players like the punishment, they all love the challenge of the game itself.
