Watch as Coach Stephanie Desmarais explains, and players demonstrate this chair closeout drill. The focus is on communication, contesting the shot, the distance between them and the opponent, and staying in a low wide stance. Three chairs are lined up across the court at the two free throw and half court lines. The girls will attack the chairs as if they were an offensive player while maintaining fundamentals and technique.
