Validating a Win

Even though I am not a DDA / DDM coach, I really appreciate Vance Walberg's belief in his system.  He is very maticulous to details and has use statistical analysis to validate his program philosophy.  One of the practice techniques that he uses that we stole and use in our own program is "Validating a Win."  When we do competitive drill work, we will have the winning team validate the win with a free throw.  If the winning team misses the free throw, they lose and have to do some sort of conditioning.  If they make the free throw, they still win and the losing team has to do conditioning. 

Vance Walberg Drills

Here are some intense pratice drills that Vance Walberg uses daily in his practices.  Each of these drills teach transition offensive and defensive concepts.  Even if you don't run a DDA/DDM style offense, you can adapt them to fit your style of play.
