Basketball Unit | Level 26

TECHNIQUE
Today we are going to learn how to make a set shot.

IMPORTANCE

VOCABULARY
Set shot: a shot while standing still and not jumping.

When making a set shot, it is important to:

PRACTICE

1. Spread out around the court with your ball. When I say, “GO!” make a shot from where you are standing. Remember to keep your feet on the ground. Retrieve your ball once you have shot and try again.
2. Repeat as many times as needed.

OBJECTIVE
Today we are playing Triple Play III. In this game, the objective is to shoot a basket by using a set shot technique.

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will select three students to start at positions #1, #2 and #3. Everyone else will line up single file behind the student in position #1.  
• When I say, "GO!" student #1 will dribble to student #2.
• Student #2 will make a shot on the basket without their feet leaving the ground.
• Student #3 will 1) rebound the shot, 2) dribble it back up to the next student in line at position #1, and 3) get in the back of the line.
• After the shot is made, student #1 will move to #2 and student #2 will move to #3.
• The next student in line can go as soon as the shot is made.
• The rotation will continue until all students have been at every position.

OBJECTIVE
Today we are playing Court Masters. In this game, the objective is to shoot a set shot into the basket before your opponent does. 

INSTRUCTIONS

• I will divide the class into teams of two.
• I will select the first two teams to start off on the court – these are the court masters.
• Before the game begins, the court masters stand at the free throw line.
• Everyone else will form a line at the baseline or end line with their partner.
• When I say, "GO!" the first team in line will roll a ball out to the court masters.  
• Once the court masters receive the ball, the game is open to a two-on-two play.
• If the court masters score first they stay on the court.
• If the opposing team scores first, they become the new court masters and the losing team goes to the end of the line at the opposing base or end line.
