1-on-1 + 1 Contested Shooting Drill: Stop Bad Shots (And How to Fix It)
Most contested shooting drills are teaching the wrong habits.
In this video from gerard_hillier we break down a 1v1+1, 3-point contested shooting drill that shifts the focus from forcing tough shots to making better decisions under pressure.
Traditional drills often reward players for taking low-quality attempts over tight defense. But in real games, great players don’t just shoot—they read, react, and adapt.
