YOUTH READ & REACT OFFENSE
ONLINE STREAMING
The Youth Level is where the best teachers of the game need to be! If basketball is introduced correctly, then there are no limits for players and teams. If it’s done incorrectly, then players are stunted, many quit, and the joy of playing is sucked out of the game! The Read & React System not only allows but directly teaches multiple ways every kid can be successful. It is designed to capture and nurture the energy and creativity of our youth.
Even though the system is taught in the same order for youth as it is for older players, certain scoring opportunities are limited based on the skill and athleticism levels of our youth. This course will teach and emphasize what is applicable and available if you coach youth basketball.

A REVOLUTIONARY WAY TO PLAY OFFENSE
MAKE EVERY MINUTE OF YOUR PRACTICE COUNT
When you equip your team to move the ball, move players, and maintain the correct amount of spacing, you will create an “athletic ball” that will find a scoring opportunity – it will find a defensive breakdown! Why should you play like everyone else when all of your opponents are preparing for traditional basketball? This course will teach your team how to play in a way that none of your opponents are prepared for and give your players the competitive edge you’ve been looking for!
LAYER 1: PERIMETER PASSING, CUTTING, FILLING, SPACING
The system starts with the number one action players default to: PASSING EAST-WEST. The Read & React turns this action into a scoring opportunity and creates the backbone of player movement, ball movement, and spacing. Passing, Cutting, Filling and Spacing also creates scoring opportunities for driving, shooting, and playing without the ball – so many opportunities that many teams feel like Layer 1 is all they need for an effective offense.
LAYER 2: PASSING INTO THE POST; WHOSE TURN IS IT?
Your team will eventually pass the ball towards the goal that will not result in a shot. In other words, what does everyone do when the ball is caught in the post? This layer will change how you and your team look at “posting”. This action is for everyone on your team and will lead your team into the basics of the Read & React Zone Attack.
LAYER 3: DRIBBLING EAST-WEST
The second most often used action by any player at any level is to dribble the ball east-west, along the perimeter. The Read & React changes this action into a scoring opportunity for players being dribbled-at, for players filling the empty spot behind the dribbler, and becomes a driving opportunity for the ballhandler. This is a tool for initiating your possessions without passing the ball, for beginning your post actions, for creating Real Estate, and for setting up Draft Drives.
LAYER 4: DRIBBLING NORTH-SOUTH DRIVING TO THE GOAL
Some will argue that for some youth players, driving to the goal is their number one go-to-action! This layer will teach the players without the ball what to do when their teammates drive. These reactions without the ball are also for the sake of the ballhandler and are based on the natural reactions of defenders. Your players will learn how to “bail out” of a bad drive without creating a turnover.
SCREENING ACTIONS FOR YOUTH PLAYERS
Many times, screening actions are a detriment to youth players rather than an advantage. Many times a ball screen simply brings two defenders to the ball handler who does not yet have the ball-handling skills needed to navigate 4 players in a tight space. This section will teach the more practical and natural screening actions that can be expected from our youth.
FOLDING EVERYTHING INTO FULL-COURT
Once the system is taught, you’ll want to extend it to the full-court. Players will be taught how to run the floor, where to go, and their next best action. Layer 10 teaches your team how to flow seamlessly from rebound, to transition, to half-court attack without “setting it up”. This layer extends the habits of play to breaking presses and the “Full-Court Trips” of Layer 10 might be the only thing your team needs for conditioning!

It ended my search to find the right offense for my team every year. The Read and React is the right offense, no matter the team. You can adapt it to any style of play and continually play to your strengths. Not only is it a coaches dream, players love operating in the offense.
