Practice Makes Perfect

Rebounding Tip Drill


What to do:

Start with 3 or more players, and line up in a single file line, just inside the freethrow line. The first player in line throws the ball off the backboard and runs to the back of the line. The next player in line jumps and tips the ball off the backboard while in the air. The next player in line does the same, as the second player returns to the back of the line.

Try to keep this going as long as possible without the ball hitting the ground. Also, try this from both sides of the basket, and change your angle to improve your rebounding and timing skills.
