As a coach I always find one of the most challenging parts of my
job is keeping the players motivated. One of the best ways I have
found for doing this is to vary the drills I use in practice.
Drills provide a powerful opportunity for coaches because they
combine so many important elements of training at once. Drills can
train all fundamental skills. They train the team to work together
in speed, agility and execution. The flowing repetition of the
drill allows the training to become second nature to the players.
Using new and varied drills and incorporating them into our
practices, we train a wide variety of fundamental skills and
variations on basic offensive plays like the fast break. I have
found that drills are often overlooked as an asset in coaching. No
matter where I am coaching whether at a clinic, or watching the
practice of a club in Europe, South America, an NCAA or high school
team. I see that coaches around the world often get into a routine
of the same drills every practice. If a drill becomes routine, then
the players will lose interest and focus. I was inspired to write
this book after coaching a group of professional players in the
Euro2003 tournament in Spain. to my drills. Other coaches who
attended the tournament also said my drills were unique and asked
me to share my techniques with them.
