For under-16 basketball, focus on game-speed drills that build skills like finishing, decision-making in pick-and-rolls, and advanced ball-handling, using activities like Three-Level Finishing, Pick-and-Roll Reads, and Two-Ball Dribbling, while integrating conditioning and situational plays for a comprehensive workout. Skill-Building Drills Three-Level Finishing: Drive for a layup, then a floater with light contact, then a contested finish (spin/strong finish) to simulate game pressure at the rim, encouraging using both hands. Two-Ball Dribbling: Develop hand-eye coordination and control with various dribbles (crossovers, between legs) using both balls. Pick-and-Roll Reads: Practice reads for hedge, drop, or switch coverages, teaching players to attack gaps or make quick passes. Form Shooting & Shooting Circuits: Master shooting fundamentals, then incorporate shooting off the dribble and cuts. Wall Passing: Build strong, ambidextrous passing with a partner or wall, focusing on quick releases and accuracy.
