Full Court Pressing Defenses Playbook

It uses a ten or more players to wear down their opponents and keep their team fresh. This Full Court Pressure Defense has been one of the best over the last three years of college basketball.

Why Press?
-To cause TO’s and leading to easier baskets
-To wear your opponents down
-To play more players on your roster
-To break opponents’ rhythm
-To eat clock on defense- shortening the time for the offense to get a good shot

These are just some of the reasons you should employ a press defense.

This book examines a variety of press defenses employed by some of the press defenses being used today. In this playbook, you will get breakdowns and drills from:

Shaka Smart- VCU and “HAVOC basketball.”
Mike White- Florida
Rick Pitino- Louisville
Jay Wright- Villanova
Scott Drew- Baylor
Mike Anderson- Arkansas and “Fastest 40” (derived from his mentor Nolan Richardson and “40 Minutes of Hell”)
Bob Huggins- West Virginia and “Press Virginia.”
