In this video you'll learn two strategies to counter an aggressive or tight man-to-man defense. You'll learn the the 1-4 offensive set up, some backdoor options and a few basic scoring options you can run from the 1-4 set. The 1-4 offense taught here is typically run against an aggressive man-to-man or matchup defense. Teams will often employ an aggressive man-to-man defense late in games when they are down in point. I don't recommend running this offense against a zone defense or against a team that plays good help matchup defense.

These two 1-4 sets are easy to teach and learn. Young teams can run this offense effectively and it can grow in complexity as team gain skills and experience. Teams that can cut and pass backdoor well will have greater success with the 1-4 set. This offense is only complimented if you also have a great post player who can read what's going on in the game and react accordingly.

This offense doesn't take long to learn, but there's a lot that can be added to it as your team learns each others tendencies on the court. Coaches, because this is a read and react offense, trust your players to make decisions on the court. Don't over-coach your players in this offense. They will make mistakes, but that's often the best and only way to learn. Encourage them to play to their strengths and recognize the strengths in their teammates.

Once your team learns to run plays from the 1-4 set, it's great fun to execute and watch the creativity of your players emerge. Even if you don't plan on running this offense, it's good to know how it works in case you come against it. Chances are pretty good that you will eventually.

Coaches should and do change their defensive strategies to counter your offensive tactics during a game. Many times, an opposing coach will change their defensive strategy to employ zone defense. In that case, you'll need to change your offensive strategy.

Learn and keep this offensive strategy in your arsenal so you can force your opponent to change up their defensive tactics!

This offense against an aggressive or tight man-to-man defense and is great for teaching youth, club teams, junior high, high school, and recreational teams.

If you have recorded video of your team executing this play or any of the plays you've learned from my channel and would like for me to do a YouTube video review of your team executing the play, please email me at:
