Individual Tactics on 1x1 (Minibasketball)

Hello everybody!

We have used the information below from this web http://basketformacion.webnode.es/.

Today we are going to talk about the individual tactic of 1x1, the player with the ball and the individual actions of an attack player against his deffense, with the intention of score a basket.

In minibasketball, coaches should train all kind of drills and tasks about 1x1 work in a global way, but with the intention to be as complete as posible. We have to take account: physical development, previous experiences and the learning capacity of each young player.

It is very important the individual tactic work at these ages to teach the children "read the game" and give a meaning to their actions.

This work isn't easy, because in first place players have to develope the selective atention to be focuse on the main stimulus, then they have to decide what resource will be used before a particular situation, and finally performe it. In addition, basketbal is a sport where events, plays or actions happend on a very fast way. Because of that, coaches may use exercises and tasks where perception and choices have relevancy.

By this way, with the coach, they will be discovering the technical-tactical intentions and the skills/resources to performe it, knowing "when, where and how".

Obviously, if we get our players to be able to dominate technical fundaments and perform 1 on 1 situations too, this will impact on a colective play improvement. For example, if we have players that are good on 1x1, they will be able to score, but although they will attract other defensive players and have many passing oportunities for a teammate in better situation.

To help you, we post a video with the main 1 on 1 situations on a minibasketball match, and the differents technical resources to resolve it.
