​Below are 4 of my favorite agility drills that emphasize a competitive environment.  The first thing I do is pair up my athletes by size/speed.  For example, I want my point guards competing against each other or my bigs going against each other.  The paired athletes will line up opposite each other and essentially race each other to the finish line.  The race begins on the coaches command.  (Note that agility drill 2 and 4 begin with a close-out drill).

Below are 3 really effective agility drills that emphasize Defensive movements.  When doing these drills emphasize with your athetes to stay low in defensive stance and to explode from cone to cone.  I would recommend doing these drills prior to any traditional conditioning drills (i.e. lane drills, 17’s, conditioning
Picture
Defensive Close out Drill- Start in the middle of the lane and closeout to cone #1 and slide to baseline.  Reset in the middle of the lane and proceed to Cones #2-4
Picture
Cone Defensive Slides- Start by sliding to the first cone, advance forward then slide to the next cone, repeat until the course is finished.

T-Drill w/ Defensive Slide- Start with a sprint to the middle cones, defensive slide to one of the outer cones, then slide to the opposite outer cone, and then back to the middle.  Finish with a backpedal to the finish cone.
