EQUIP YOUR TEAM TO BREAK DOWN
ANY ZONE DEFENSE
And that’s just a man-to-man offense. Fold in zone offense and kiss your precious practice time goodbye.
But you really have no choice in the matter…
An offense that proves the defense wrong no matter what they throw at you—whether it be man-to-man, a 2-3, a 1-2-2, or any other zone formation—is a must. That is if you want to win games.
Think about this—if you can beat a zone defense with the same efficiency that you beat man-to-man, where will your opponents go? Back to man-to-man?
The big question is, where do you find the time to accomplish this?
Let me show you…
Climbing Mount Everest—physically and mentally exhausting, a task you’re not sure you want to take on.

This isn’t an entirely new offense specifically designed for zones. It’s all found inside the Read & React offense and while every action can be turned into a called play…it’s built to show your team to how prove any zone defense wrong time and time again.
The key? Elevating your players’ I.Q. and developing an understanding of how to find and expose the zones’ weaknesses, no matter what.
And it takes a lot more than X’s and O’s to get here. Most players are visual learners who need to see real game footage so they can understand the timing, spacing, and the big picture.
Sure, you can implement a zone offense strictly through X’s and O’s paired with practice time. But it is a slow, demanding route. And we’re here to help make your life easier, your practices more efficient and your players smarter.
Think of this as your zone offense teaching assistant who does the grunt work for you. You’ll gain back precious time and the outcome will be tremendous.
You’ll have the tools you need to collapse timeframes while effectively implementing zone offense.
They’ll have the support and direction required to create high-quality shot opportunities against any zone formation.
… and master actions. Practice is essential.
But thanks to the Zones Player System, the practice time required is drastically reduced. I’m certain this system will provide your players with an incredible understanding of zones and how to capitalize on their weaknesses.
And versatility will be on your side—you can seamlessly integrate the specified actions as called plays or go big by incorporating the entire Read and React offense. The choice is yours.
Regardless of your choice…
We can help you build a team of players who play smart, no matter what level of basketball you coach. And no doubt, that will equate to more wins in the record book.
The Zones Player’s System was designed specifically for players and built using game footage.
The best way for a player to understand the system is to see it live in action. Every tactic and concept is broken down step-by-step from a player’s perspective.
Each section of the system has a test that players can take to make sure they actually have the basketball IQ that you need them to have.
All you have to do is select the video and push send.

Your players will understand how to use passing to create open perimeter spots. There are 3 methods taught: The Skip Pass: Why use it and when…

“Inside-Out” are very high percentage perimeter shots. The players are taught the best passing windows for the High Post, the Mid Post, and…
the Short Corners. The Extra Pass is explored in conjunction with Inside-Out passes.
For the players who like to put the ball on the floor, there are 4 methods for creating open perimeter shots with the dribble. The first method…
is to simply Drive, Draw Defense, and Pitch to the open teammate – just like against Player-to-Player defenses. When the defense rotates, the Extra Pass is added to the Drive, Draw, and Kick.
The third method is DARP1 which stands for Drive And Return the Pass where you left the perimeter and DARP2 which stands for Dribble-At or Dribble Away and Return the Pass where you came from. Both DARPs create a 2-on-1 situation for the zone to navigate.
Midrange Shots are needed against some zones and they are created in 3 ways: Flank Shots – in the short corners, Logo Shots and how you…
get them and Logo Moves.
It goes against traditional thought, but this course will teach your players how get LAY-UPS against any type of zone. There are…
3 “buckets” of methods for getting these “inside the restricted arc” shots. The first bucket includes The Lob, Pass & Basket Cut, and Drive to a Lay-up. How, why, and when these work are explored, illustrated with game footage, and taught with defensive reads.
Your players will know how to get LAY-UPS through the Short Corner (the Flank) using several methods: The Move, “Flank-em” with a pass, and…
“Flank-em” with a drive. The last two methods create a 2-on-1 situation with the center of the zone.
I’ll teach your players how to get LAY-UPS through the Logo, which we also call “The Nail” including The Logo Move, “Nail-em” with a pass, and…
“Nail-em” with a drive. The last two methods also create a 2-on-1 situation with the center of the zone. The defender will always be wrong!
