How to Run Suicide Drills

Video Transcript

QUIN SNYDER: Another great thing about this game is it keeps you in shape. And we are going to show you a drill. When your coach says get on the line and tells you have to run suicide, this is what it looks like. And the guys love this. This usually comes at the end of practice but also can come during practice if a player is making a mistake or the team is not playing hard. A regular suicide would be touching the free throw line, coming back, touching the mid court and coming back, touching the opposite free throw line and back, and finally the length of the court and back. You can run a full suicide or you can run partial suicides. These guys have done a great job this morning, so we are just going to have them run in partial. So we will go free throw, half and three quarter. Free throw, half and three quarter. The other thing that is fun about this, too, you could see which guys are competitive. Sometimes guys can compete against the clock or against one another. I do not have a whistle, but usually I blow the whistle right now. Go. Here we go. Way to work. Okay, let us bring it in guys, let us bring it in. Again, we talked about it as a one-on-one game, it could be a two-on-two game, you could play by yourself, all you need is a ball and a goal, and my favorite thing about it is it is a team game. Good job, guys. At the end of the practice, we bring it in. Here we go. MAN: [OVERLAPPING] Say one team, baby. One, two, three, team. QUIN SNYDER: Team.
