This drill is all about repetition and working on your concentration during your shot, but the reason we use chairs in this drill is to ensure the shooter gets low and uses their legs on the jump shot. Now for this drill to work its will require 4 chairs 4 balls and at least you and one other person. If possible have three of you for the drill to make it work smoother. This drill also has a conditioning aspect to it as it is completed at a high intensity level, and you will certainly feel it.
You will place the four chairs spread around the three point line facing away from the basket and the chairs need to be place; two of the chairs need to be slightly out of the corners for you to curl and shoot, and the other two slightly wider than the elbows at the top sat on the 3 point line. Place a ball on each chair at the start of the drill and your partner(s) will be replacing the balls as you use them. We you will be working the chairs in a crossed figure of 8 starting on the top left chair.
Starting underneath the basket you will sprint to the inside of the first chair, curling around as you pick up the ball and shooting in rhythm. Land and sprint back underneath the net and repeating the process to the opposite corner chair. Then move to the opposite chair in the corner curling the chair again and making it back to the middle before heading to the final chair at the top. Make sure you return to under the basket after each shot, then heading to the following chair. This is one time around the chairs and you will instantly start again to shoot another four shots and this will end one complete circuit. You should be shooting a total of 8 shots in each circuit. At first focus on legs and making the shot before concentrating on time as this is a physically demanding drill....but this does not mean you don’t run hard. Push yourself physically and mentally in each drill.
