Around the World
Shoot your way around the key from a series of spots; miss and you stay put. Great for reps and focus.

Setup
Mark 5–7 spots in an arc around the key (baseline, wing, elbow, top, and the other side).
How it works
- 1Start at the first baseline spot and shoot.
- 2Make it to advance to the next spot; miss and stay (or take one 'chance' shot).
- 3Work all the way around and back.
- 4With a partner, alternate turns — first to finish wins.
Coaching points
- ✔Same routine on every shot: feet set, eyes on target.
- ✔Rebound your own ball and sprint to the next spot to add conditioning.
Variations
- Move the spots out to the three-point line for older players.
- Two-in-a-row to advance.
