With 699 coaching victories behind him, Coach Vetter shares his twenty favorite practice drills. One everyday drill is the 'defensive stance' drill. This fundamental drill provides a defensive foundation for the entire season. The 'Mustang slide' is a fast-paced drill that incorporates the defensive slide with the dive. Renowned strength coach Alan Stein has developed a few of Vetter's favorite drills that develop quick feet and hands; 'Read and React' and the 'five-cone pyramid' are two examples. Ball drills play a key role in Vetter's practice drills philosophy. Stationary ball handling drills build strength and command of the ball. Included are the 'dribble and roll', 'two ball' drills, 'leg circle' drill and the 'leg scissors' drill. The'3-man weave' is done with 5, 4, 3 and 2 passes. To create game-like settings, plastic trashcans are used on the floor. Players dribble and maneuver around them and take on defenders. Another favorite drill is the '2-on-1' drill where offensive players attack the basket against one defender. To involve all players, the '11-Man Fast Break' creates legitimate game like situations. The 'Two-man Finishing' drill is excellent for powering the ball to the basket. Each drill is competitive and designed to benefit both the offense and defense players.
