Improve shooting within a fun and competitive atmosphere.
This can be a fun and competitive activity to allow the kids some time away from the structure of a typical practice.
Split the kids into teams of 3 or 4. It works best with 3 teams stationed at 3 different baskets. Each kid gets 1 minute to score as many points as possible for 'his team'.
Kids must shoot 3 shots from 7 different spots.
Scoring is as follows:
Lay-up (right side) = 1 point
Lay-up (left side) = 1 point
In the paint (jumper) = 1 point
Free throw = 2 points
Wing (right side) = 2 points
Wing (left side) = 2 points
Three point area = 3 points
Tally the total per team. The winning team gets to watch the other teams run. Tell the kids to work on their shooting when they have a chance away from structured practice.
9+
Teach proper shooting techiques. Balance, square-up, release rotation, etc. Gives kids a chance to shoot under pressure too. Watch to make sure that they hustle to get the rebound.
If time runs out on the shooter use the points that he has accumulated and move on.
Shot location. Point value. Team size. Stick a defender another team (someone not shooting).
