Three-Step Shooting Drill
Learning Outcomes
Learn and practice the fundamental three-step approach for a jump shot, improve coordination and timing for shooting on the move.
Description Of Activity
Students practice the three-step rhythm (right-left-jump for right-handed shooters) starting a few meters outside the goal area. On the third step (the jump), they release the ball towards a goal with a stationary or semi-active goalkeeper.
Variations
Focus on the footwork without the ball initially.
Practice shooting at different heights and angles.
Introduce a slight angle to the approach.
The goalkeeper can start moving laterally.
Coaching Tips
Emphasize the rhythm and coordination of the steps.
Ensure the jump is upwards and slightly forward.
Focus on transferring power from the legs to the arm during the jump and release.
Equipment/Material Required
Handballs, handball goal, goalkeeper.
