This is a full Court lay-up drill. Set four players on the court one on each of the elbows. Have the two one the right side of the court face one basket and have the two on the left side of the court face the other basket. Have the remaining players split up into two groups under each basket.
On the whistle have the first player in line under each basket begin by passing the ball to the nearest player on the elbow facing them.
Once the ball has been passed to the player on the elbow the passer will run toward the ball, get a handoff, and pass it to the next player on the elbow on the far end of the court. Once again the passer runs to the ball, gets an handoff, shoots a lay-up and goes to the back of the line under that basket. A new player will get the made lay-up and continue the same process.
8 or more
Give the players a goal of how many lay-ups you want the group to make.
Trade the players who are on the elbows with the players running about every 30 sec.
This drill can be varied by time either more or less than 2 minutes or by allowing players to shoot a jump shot rather than a lay-up.
