Everything you wanted and more about Rebounding HERE

Rebound Rebound Rebound…as I hear more coaches yelling this thesedays

Rebounding is DESIRE! It’s not about how high you jump, it’s about hustle

Rebounding is WANTING IT! It’s not about how big, it’s about how much you want it.

Rebounding is ATTITUDE! It’s not trying, it’s MINE and No one is stopping me!

Rebound #1: Always be ready for the ball

while rebounding

Always be ready for the ball to come of the board or rim anyway and anytime. I have seen to many players not be ready for the ball while trying to rebound and either it hits them in the face or more embarrassing then that it hits them in the hands and then goes out to bounds and guess what the other team still has the ball. So Always have your Hands ready for the ball.

Rebound #2: You must WANT the rebound

Rebounding techniques, Rebounding skills, and etc..can be taught, but I honestly believe some of the best rebounders are the ones that want to rebound and wanting the most rebounds. Don’t get me wrong there are some techniques to improve rebounding, but if you have the desire and the want then your know what your going to become the best rebounder on your team, in your league, in your conference and more!

Rebound #3: Positioning

The best position in rebounding is to be the first man to the ball keeping your body between your opponent and the ball (as I say ball, because the ball does not always come off the board or rim). With this idea also remember that not only having a body on your opponent, but there are 8 other guys on the floor that are wanting tha ball to. So your going to have to go after that ball no matter what. The most important fact is that your team gets the ball.

DEFENSIVE REBOUNDING

Rebound #1: HIT and REBOUND

First you have to go after your man and make contact, but thats only half. The second half is you have to get the rebound. Don’t foul, but just “box out” by making contact first then pivoting and putting your butt into honestly I say knees! If you get them in the knees its hard for them to get around, but don’t be dirty about it either. So you box out that’s only half the job. The other have is to release and rebound. Remember rebounding is an Attitude, Desire, and Want. So who ever goes after that ball the hardes and wants it the most will get it I promise!

Rebound #2: A Coaches Dream

I can rememeber always hearing praise in practice or in a game if all five our players boxed out extremely hard! So hard that the rebound could hit the floor and having all five our guys around it. Remember though someone still going to have to go after it. Though it is a coaches dream to see that. Invision that your going to make this happend while your the one going to get the rebound. Start improving your rebounding TODAY!

OFFENSIVE REBOUNDING

Rebound #1: OFFENSIVE REBOUNDING

In Offensive rebounding you have to go after them each and every time. I mean literally challenge want each and every missed shot. I say this with a warning though don’t pick up stupid fouls for this. Be aggressive and want, but don’t be stupid either. Use some kind of fake or spin move to try to get around your man, but you know what if you can not get don’t foul. The biggest key is to go after each and everyone rebound because sooner or later your man is going to slip and miss a box out and in there for a and 1 score every time!
