How PRACTX structures practice.
PRACTX organizes video drills by development goal. Recommendations follow the PRACTX coaching philosophy and help you make your selection.
20 goals as a shared framework.
These goals describe what players work on. Every drill has one main goal and can also have secondary goals.
Offense
- Ball handling and dribbling
- Finishing at the rim
- Close- and mid-range shooting
- Long-range shooting
- Passing and team play
- 1-on-1 with the ball
- Movement, rotation and spacing
- Screens and offensive structures
- Transition and advantage play
- Ball advancement and press
Defense
- On-ball defense
- Off-ball defense
- Rebounding and second chances
- Closeout
- Defense rotation & spacing
Game
- Game situations and decision-making
- Team building and fun
- In-game communication
Age and team skill level are not the same thing.
Each goal has a recommendation for the combination of age group and team skill level, from 1 to 3. Coaches can see that guidance when choosing goals.

What the drill primarily develops.
The main goal explains why a drill is selected. Secondary goals describe what else players practice in the same situation.
Example: 1-on-1 toward the basket
In a 1-on-1 drill toward the basket, finishing may be the main goal. Players also practice skills such as ball handling and on-ball defense.
Constraints Led Approach CLA
One drill. Different challenges. Fewer dribbles, a different hand or a time limit: use simple rules to adapt a familiar drill. These conditions are called constraints. This is how players learn to find solutions in the situation.
For example:
CLA: cross half-court within 4 seconds
COACH: 4-3-2-1 turnover
Solution: long pass instead of going 1-on-1
Weak hand only
Max 2 dribbles
4 seconds
Defense without handsConstraints can change tasks, conditions and decision situations. A constraint does not automatically suit every drill.
