Basketball Plays for Youth
On this page you will find links to other pages that each contain a different basketball play on it. I have looked for similar plays of the ones that I have posted. After looking at many different pages that all were showing the same play, I came to the conclusion that hardly any pages made it easy to understand the play itself and where each player should be at all times. My goal is to post effective plays and make them easy to understand, and easy to teach to whomever you choose. To do this along with a description of how to setup, and run each play, I will provide a diagram for each of these for all plays as well.
When taught correctly, a basketball play should be easy to remember, and should also be effective in a game scenario. Some plays are very good at getting a team points, but if the team has a hard time running the play right don't waste your time, try to find a play that is both effective, and easy for the team to remember.
If your team has a hard time with a certain aspect of a play, a good way to help your team with this is to run drills that focus on what needs to be improved for your team. One guide that I have purchased in the past is Survival Guide for Coaching Youth Basketball. Click Here to view this guide.
