Using the Goalrilla G Trainer, two players are going to work to execute this basketball drill. The Goalrilla G Trainer will be set up at half court with both players starting under the basketball hoop. The first player will dribble towards the G Trainer and upon reaching the free throw line, will deliver a chest pass. Once catching the chest pass, the player will make a quick jab step and will dribble towards the basketball goal for a layup. After the first player catches the chest pass and makes the move towards the basketball hoop for the layup, the second player will begin the same series of steps.

This is a great drill to work on a player’s pass, dribble and the jab step fake. By performing this drill with two players, it will drastically improve team communication skills. Not only will this make the practice session run smoothly, players will learn to more effectively communicate with one another on the court. Overall, this exercise allows players to both improve their one on one and team communication skills.

Using the Goalrilla G Trainer is a great way to focus on individual player skills. It works on the quick chest pass, receipt and keeping the feet planted on the ground. Working this basketball drill, players can use either the left or right side.
