Coaching points
- When you double, the man left open must be the one farthest from the ball. Everyone else rotates as in a slide, sticks in the passing lanes.
- Choose the spot: push him away from the cage toward the low corner and let the end line help you. Kaley and Donovan: a trap lets him carry the ball to a spot where he can be easily doubled.
- Kaley and Donovan's Trap: your teammate doubles from the onside, the way he is going, and you double from the backside.
- Kaley and Donovan call a double "Bingo"; Gould Academy uses the same word to come out of a zone into man. Choose your own call.
