OFF-SEASON THOUGHTS -- DAY #1: RICK PITINO'S 3 PLAYER GUN SHOOTING DRILL

OFF-SEASON THOUGHTS -- DAY #1: During this 10-day period, we are going to load up our blog on thoughts that are relevant to developing or improving your off-season program.  We will delve on off-season topics from player development and drill work to motivation and team building.  It will be our sincere wish that over the next 10 days we can provide you with at least one item or thought that will help you and your program.

We always talk about the importance of utilizing your imagination in coaching.  Whether you are creating a drill or tweaking one to maximize the workout for your players, the off-season is a great time to take a look at your drill package -- especially ones that you would like for your players to utilize in the summer.

Below is a three-player shooting drill form Rick Pitino utilizing The Gun that has movement and passing involved -- "game like action."
