Piston Fast Break

Directions:

1. There are two teams (designated by letters and numbers)

2. The first team (numbers) starts the drill by going down the floor 2 on 1 vs their opponent (letters)

3. The remaining players on each team line up on baselines opposite of each other

4. After the first team (numbers) goes 2 on 1 and the possession ends, they rotate back on defense

5. Two of the players from their opponent (letters) join the game and they attack 3 on 2 on the opposite end of the floor

6. Once the possession is over, offense rotates back

7. The first team (numbers) now adds two players and they break down the floor 4 on 3

8. Each trip down the floor teams add two players, giving them an advantage on the fast break, until the game ends up 5 on 5

Other Teaching Points:

• This drill works on both transition offense and transition defense strategies
