Ball Control Drills

with Darren Weissman,
Five-Star Basketball Coach/Instructor

Coach Weissman demonstrates the skills, drills and teaching points used at the Five-Star Camps to present an opportunity for any player to take their ball skills to the next level! Warm-up exercises include ball slaps, fingertip control, around the body, back and forth and front to back. Easy and difficult coordination drills help players push their comfort zones; two ball dribbling drills are a great way to develop coordination and improve ball handling, two-ball figure eight and around the legs drills are challenging, and the scissors drill, the three-ball drill and four-ball drill are for advanced players. The unique multi-task drills begin with the dribble one, shoot one drill - one hand dribbles while the other shoots from close range. Using a wall, the wall/ground drill develops hand quickness and improved ball handling. Combination dribble, pass and move drills can improve a players overall game. Sit down ball handling drills force players to use their arms, fingers and fingertips. The game speed series of drills will help all players, regardless of skill level!
