Half of the players have a ball. They are attackers. The other players are defenders. The attackers can shoot at all baskets, but only once in a row at the same basket.

Each defender can get a ball at any point in the court by defending according to the rules. After a successful basket shot, the attacker retains possession of the ball. Everyone counts the number of baskets scored in a given time.

Objective: Intensive practice of technical and tactical elements

Two teams play for all available baskets in the entire hall. The aim is to score baskets in the opponent's half of the court. A player - the joker - waits behind the baseline and may be included in the attack. However, the joker may not cross the baseline.

Objective: Good free running, intensive passing and man-to-man defence

The participants bounce the ball through a slalom course consisting of colouring sticks and then perform a basket shot or basket shot. The throwing stations are defined with cones, the cones close to the basket indicate a basket shot.

Additional strengthening task:
Those who do not sink the ball into the basket complete a strength exercise: 10x rotation of the upper body in a sitting position (russian twist)

1 basketball hoop
2-4 basketball balls (depending on the number of participants)
6 colouring sticks
8 marker cones

The participants spread out in the corners of the pitch at the start of the exercise. The sequence of the exercise is as follows:

Two players (A1+B1 or A2+B2) perform the exercise together on one side along the entire length of the hall.

Player A1:

1. Dribbling around the marker sticks (incl. change of hands)
2. Pass to player B1
3. Running around the marker change of hands)
4. Pass to player B1
5. Run around the marker, demand and receive the pass
6. Finish with a lay-up
7. Settle into the line of players opposite the starting point (new player B1)

Player B1:

1. Sprint to the mark (note timing to player A1)
2. Claim and receive the ball
3. Pass into the run of player A1
4. Chase after player A1 to secure the ball after he has finished (rebound)
5. Join the column on the opposite side (new player A2)

Player A2: Analogue to player A1, but becomes player B2 after the exercise

Player B2:Analogue to player B1, but becomes player A1 after the exercise

The players therefore rotate in an anti-clockwise direction.

Participants:
1 basketball

Pitch:
12 colouring sticks

Ball in the centre with player 1. Player 1 passes the ball to player 2 (wing) and runs through in front of her defender towards the basket. If player 1 receives the ball back from player 2, he moves towards the basket. If he does not receive the ball, he continues his movement and runs to the opposite wing position. As soon as player 1 starts running, player 3 moves to his position. The starting position in the triangle is restored.

Variations:

• Players 1 and 3 are next to the painting stick, player 2 next to the second painting stick (at a distance of about 10 metres). 1 passes the ball to 2, follows the ball, runs around the colouring stick and prepares to receive the ball again. 2 has now passed to 3 and followed the ball, etc. After twenty successful passes, increase the distance between the painting sticks.
• The same triangular position as for the Give and Go, ball in the centre. 1 plays the pass to 2 and puts a block on the defender of 3 (stable position, arms crossed). 3 runs off and offers herself to receive the ball. Finish as with the give and go.
• With ground passes, one-handed passes, overhead passes.

Basketball game with 2 teams (3-4 players each) on one half of the court. Aim for the basket and two additional hoops. An oversized ball, e.g. a gym ball, is placed on the basketball hoop. 2 points can be scored if the basketball bouncing off the gym ball is caught as a rebound. 1 point is scored if the ball is placed in a hoop. This can be prevented by a defender putting his foot in the hoop. The attacker is the referee.

Objectives: Use of the rebound, opening up the game through additional scoring opportunities.

Variant I:
Change of possession after a point or when the ball is lost.

Variant II:
One team tries to score as many points as possible during 1-3 minutes and counts the points.

Two teams of 4-7 players play against each other in one half of the court. The team in possession of the ball tries to reach 10 catch points by passing, the passes are counted out loud. The 10th catch point authorises a fast attack on the basket in the free half of the court. The other team gains the right to a quick attack by winning the ball.

Objective: Adapted tactics, quick changeover from attack to defence.

Prone position on the slackline. Ideally, the slackline runs diagonally under the body (e.g. right shoulder, left thigh and left shin rest on the line).

Lighten the load:
Hold on to the slackline with one hand.

Lighten the load:
Stretch your arms out to the side; stand up from a prone position.

1 Slackline

Stomach position, grasp a dumbbell with both hands (back of each hand pointing to the respective side), these are placed on the floor at chest height, the arms are bent accordingly. From this position, stretch your arms to push your upper body away from the floor, your knees are also no longer in contact with the floor and your slightly bent legs are only supported on the tips of your feet. With a small jump forwards, bring your legs approximately shoulder-width apart towards the dumbbells (place your feet slightly inwards behind the dumbbells on each side). The upper body is tilted forwards as the outstretched arms are still holding the weights on the floor (back as straight as possible). Now straighten your legs, push your hips forwards and raise your upper body to a standing position. The arms remain stretched and point sideways along the body towards the floor in the end position so that the weights are approximately at hip height. Then lower your upper body back down to place the weights on the floor again with your arms straight (with the tips of your feet slightly offset outwards). Support your upper body with your arms (hands gripping the dumbbells) to perform a two-legged jump backwards so that you reach the push-up position. Lower your upper body back to the starting position in the prone position (bend your arms, hold the weights next to your chest, knees on the floor, straight legs resting on the tips of your feet).

Lighten:
Less/no weight.

Harden:
Execute a push-up instead of lowering your body to the prone position; more weight.

2 dumbbells

Stomach position, grasp a dumbbell with both hands (back of each hand pointing to the respective side), these are placed on the floor at chest height, the arms are bent accordingly. From this position, stretch your arms to push your upper body away from the floor, your knees are also no longer in contact with the floor and your slightly bent legs are only supported on the tips of your feet (push-up position). With a small jump forwards, bring your legs more than shoulder-width apart towards the dumbbells (place your feet slightly outwards behind the dumbbells on each side). The upper body is tilted forwards as the outstretched arms are still holding the weights on the floor (back as straight as possible). Now lift the weights off the floor and move them backwards between your legs to the height of your buttocks with your arms stretched out. Now swing the weights overhead by first holding the dumbbells in front of your chest with your arms bent, and from there push your arms out vertically upwards. The upright stance with arms stretched upwards and legs slightly bent corresponds to the end position. Then bend your arms while standing upright to bring the weights to your shoulders. Tilt your upper body forwards, stretch your arms and place the dumbbells on the floor between your legs (slightly in front of your feet) (legs slightly bent). Support your upper body with your arms (hands gripping the dumbbells), jump backwards with both legs so that you can assume the starting position in the prone position in one smooth movement (bend your arms, lower your upper body, hold the weights next to your chest, knees on the floor, straight legs resting on the tips of your feet).

Lighten:
Less/no weight.

Harden:
Execute a push-up instead of lowering the body to the prone position; more weight.

Lie on your stomach in front of a wall with the tips of your feet exactly in the corner between the floor and the wall and your arms bent next to your shoulders (palms on the floor, elbows pointing towards the wall). Extend your arms to push your upper body away from the floor, then walk your feet upwards along the wall (alternately moving one leg upwards), at the same time as moving your legs upwards, alternately move your arms towards the wall (walking with your arms). The legs and arms are moved until the handstand position can be assumed (full body stretch, arms stretched out in a high position). Then perform the movement sequence in reverse order to return from the handstand to the prone position.

Attention:
Move your legs and arms in a controlled manner.

Lighten:
Break off the exercise before the handstand position and return to the prone position (move your legs less far upwards).

Harden:
Additional weight (on your feet).

The movement is practised as follows:
The foot at the back in the direction of movement pushes off the floor and the foot at the front is placed 10-15cm in front. The rear foot is then pulled back so that the original starting position is restored. The movement is dynamic, gliding light-footedly over the floor. The movement can also be performed with small flat jumps. It is important to ensure that the movement is always practised in combination with the boxing position.

No material required

One participant circles the tyre with small readjusting steps, while the second participant tries to stay opposite. The participants take small flat (sideways) steps on the balls of their feet. The distance between the feet is not less than shoulder width. The foot closer to the direction of movement goes first, the second foot is only pulled up to shoulder width. Change roles after a while.
