Offensive rebounding starts on the shot, not on the miss. Waiting until the ball is missed is too late. The other advantage to rebounding when the shot is taken is that when the shot does go in, you are prepared to immediately convert to defense.

All set plays and motion sequences should end with the players filling the rebound spots. Click here for to see our animated zone play, Stack, which illustrates the rebounding spots.

The best three rebounders go to the block, block, and front of the rim. The halfback goes to the top of key for long rebounds and the fullback retreats to the center jump circle. If the rebounders cannot grab the ball, they tip the ball out to the halfback and fullback. No over the back fouls!

Here is an example of a shooting drill that Coach Jamie Dixon uses in the Pitt men's program that rehearses the habit of getting to your rebounding spots Jamie Dixon Shooting Drill. Not only do I really like this drill, I think it is a good philosophy to apply to all of your shooting drills to have the players go to their rebound assignment when they shoot in a shooting drill.

Make or miss the players are in position for the beginning of conversion defense.

The goal for misses per offensive rebound is less than two misses per offensive rebound.
