Basketball Drills Half Court 4v4
The half court 4v4 drill is a wonderful drill for all ages.  For younger ages it will give the kids a little more space to be creative and make good basketball decisions.  I have watched alot of the youth games and most of the game deteriorates into swarming the ball resulting in a turnover or a wild shot at the basket.  Taking the player off and playing 4v4 will allow more space for the boys to actually play rather than just get overwhelmed. For the older boys it will promote creativity on the offensive side and force better positioning and defending on the other side.  The kids will love this drill at all ages.
