So what are some tips that you would give your team if the defense is really good at bumping cutters? Cut behind sometimes? Cut off of a post screen?

How about when the wing passes up to the guard? I hate the basket cut and come back to the same spot, so I tell my girls they must take someone else’s spot with a back screen. This helps create real estate on the ball side for the dribble drive. Can you talk me into or out of this?

So we did our first practice and the biggest problem was that the girls want to go so fast. They hot-potato the ball around not giving time for the cutters. We will do most of our rehearsals today with baseline partners and see if we can slow them down. But I loved the energy and getting up extra shots (player development) is less wasted time and more concentration by the players who would normally be sitting on their butts. Good first rehearsal.

I’m coaching varsity girls. They know the offense, but I want to make them aware of more advanced concepts of R&R because it’s been a lot of pass and cut and fill the empty spot.
