This drill is an excellent way to teach discipline, foul shooting under pressure, and when very tired.
Players line up on end line and each take a turn going to the foul line to shoot two free throws. If the player makes both then the next player goes to the line. If any player misses one free throw, then the entire team runs a killer drill. The same player who just missed the free throw must now return to the line to shoot two more free throws. The drill continues until all players have made two consecutive free throws.
Entire team
Stress to your players the importance of making free throws when tired, simulating the end of a game, when the entire team is depending on you.
Time the killer drills. If over 30-35 seconds, have them do
it again.
Also, you can vary this drill by having the team run a wind sprint (up and down the court) for one missed free throw and a killer drill for two misses.
