Dribbling with Both Hands

Drill Objective

This drill will help you improve hand speed, ball control and your ability to dribble with both hands.

Drill Setup

You need two basketballs.

Drill Instructions

Start at the baseline with two basketballs, one for each hand.  Start down the court to the other end dribbling a ball with each hand.  It is all right to look down at the basketballs while doing this drill, but after a while try keeping your head up, so you will really improve.  Do sets down and back the entire length of the court.  Vary your speed as your skill improves.

Drill Variations

Drill Coach Points

Focus on good control of the balls with each hand.  Try to make your off hand dribble jsut as good as your strong hand.
