5 on 5 2:00 Possessions

Directions:

1. Organize two teams of 5

2. Play 5 on 5 in the half court

3. The offensive team stays on offense and the defensive team stays on defense for 2:00 straight

4. Each time the offense scores, they get points and stay on offense

5. After a score or a turnover, the ball is returned to the offense immediately for another possession

6. Repeat this until time runs out, then switch offense and defense

Other Teaching Points:

• The goal on offense is to score as many points as possible in 2:00

• The goal on defense is to prevent the offense from scoring

• This drill simulates conditions that are common when we play teams that like to hold the ball (i.e. Loyola Academy)
