coaching points,
individual skill instruction,
tactical team preparations, and
practice drills.
Action footage shows how lessons learned on the practice floor are transferred successfully to games. You will find the content aptivating and directly applicable to your own improvement or to that of your players.
Duke is known for its tough team defense, and four Blue Devils have been chosen Defensive Player of the Year during Coach K`s tenure. Team Defense shows how you can transform five individual players into a single, basket-denying unit. From the trademark floor slap to the half-court trap, this tape is a complete clinic on the techniques required to fulfill individual position responsibilities and the tactical adjustments required to stop offensive attacks of all kinds.
Duke`s emphasis on beating their opponent in switching from defense to offense and from offense to defense has now become a hallmark of their success. Very rarely do they give up an easy fastbreak basket, while they score many breakaway buckets themselves. Transition Game shows that this advantage is developed on the practice court by design, drilling, and desire, and it describes how you can achieve this advantage for yourself or your team.
Championship Practices provides a unique behind-the-scenes look at how Coach K and his staff plan and conduct their practice sessions to produce powerhouse teams. From overall season objectives to specific player teaching points, this video shows how you can transfer the blueprint for success to players. Each element of practice is broken down into modules of instruction as Coach K teaches, corrects, reinforces, and attends to all aspects of the game in his classroom on the court.
