Crossover Dribble
Crossover dribbling moves are used to move the ball from one hand to the other to change direction.
1. keep your hand up so that you can see the court at all times.
2. Keep your dribble and body under control so that you can pass; change pace and direction, or shoot as the situation calls for it.
3. Protect the ball from your opponents.
4. Execute each crossover smoothly and quickly.
Points of Emphasis
1. the distance from the defender you chose to make your move.
2. The height of the ball on the crossover ( the closer the defender, the lower the crossover dribble must be).
3. The ability to keep the ball close to your body and under control as the distance closes between you and your defender.
Between the Legs Dribble
Review front dribble carefully before learning this skill. This will give you another method of changing dribbling direction.
To push the ball firmly through your legs, you must bend your knees to lower your body position on the last dribble and slide your right hand slightly with the fingers comfortable spread, to the outside (right) of the ball. Be sure the last step with the left leg is long enough to allow the ball to go through your legs.
Your left hand should be turned slightly in toward your body with the finger comfortable spread, ready to receive the ball off he bounce from your right hand. The left hand should accept the ball at the same level or lower than where it left the right hand.
As the ball comes across your body from your right hand to your left hand, swing your right leg across and in front of your body so that you are now dribbling with your left hand at a 45-degree angle to your left. Be sure that immediately after you cross over, you step across with your leg and swing your right shoulder to protect the ball from the defense. Your head should be up during the entire sequence.
Spin or Turn Dribble
This has become one of the most popular change-of-direction moves of the dribble.
A simple way to remember the move is to think ''plant, step and pull, and go.'' This refers to planting the left foot and stepping with the right foot as you reverse pivot off your left foot. ''Go'' means to complete the momentum of your turn by swinging your left leg around and continue dribbling with your left hand.
Begin practicing the spin move slowly and get a feeling of rhythm of the spin. The plant step should be a hard step with the weight shifting almost entirely as the planted foot before the reverse pivot. Bend your knees a little bit more on the reverse pivot because it will improve your balance and smooth out move. Lastly, bounce the ball hardly on the last dribble and pull the ball around you by rotating the elbow in and wrist out without turning the palm over. The ball should bounce in front of the toes of the left foot when spinning left.
Behind the Back Dribble
Keep the ball in as close as possible to your body without allowing the ball to touch you when you push it behind your back. as the ball comes up from the last dribble with the right hand, with fingers comfortably spread, slides slightly to the inside or left of the ball. This causes the wrist to flex slightly to the preparation of pulling the ball around behind you . It should be noted that some players use a different method on this maneuver; they make the last dribble, with the right hand behind their left hip, slide their right hand to the outside or right of the ball and simply push the ball behind th
