Shooting: BEEF
Learning how to shoot can be difficult for beginners, but the acronym BEEF is intended to make the experience a little bit simpler. Add a ball once the players have mastered both the vocabulary and the strategy.
B stands for balance: Having strong feet that are almost shoulder width apart helps with balance. The ball must then be pointed towards the target by the players.
E stands for Eyes: Beginners may be asked to assume that something is floating above the ring of the target and that they must reach for it in order to score a point.
The letter E stands for elbow: and it must be ensured that the players’ arms are extending closer to the ear with their elbows facing the ring. Before the player throws the ball, the elbows should be made to retain the same posture as the limbs are bent backward.
F stands for Follow Through: In this shooting drill, a follow through is formed by flicking the wrist away from the shooting side.
Positions
Teaching the position is one of the most challenging elements of the sport. However, you can find it more enjoyable by devising a game to show them. Begin by making the players sprint to each location and then yell out the name before they enter the designated position. You’ll finally be able to time each player when they run around and name each spot.
Stepping: Ice Cream
It could be challenging for some beginners to understand the technique of not stepping at first. You could even make a game out of it. The ice-cream game is a fun way to pass the time in these situations. The coach must line up the players at the base line and then make them sprint before the whistle is sounded by the coach. They must do a low hop and land on one foot while yelling the word “ice” as they hear the whistle. Have them scream the word “cream” as they begin to put their back foot back on the ground.
Catching and Passing: Bean Bag
To prevent injury and collisions, start with a small beanbag and practice throwing and catching. Gather all of the newcomers into a circle and make them practice tossing or throwing the beanbag to their left and right. The coach would then go around the circle with the beanbag several times before introducing the ball. This would give them enough time to learn the various passes and how to be very precise before throwing a ball.
Movement Drill
At the base line, divide the players into two parallel lines. The coach would then yell out various motions for them to execute. They will then make each member of the team perform the specific movement down the entire court before returning to the line before the gamete of events has been completed.
