Re: How are you training your inbounder? (Human Player)

As it's been mentioned, there are three things a HP needs to do.

1. Know the rules, very critical. they can't be causing unnecessary fouls.

2. Be able to bounce the balls over the bump.

3. Have the strength to go for Hail Mary shots at the last 30 seconds.

How many HP's do you train? I hold tryouts, for our drive team and then rotate them during competition. This keeps it fair, and people don't get worked up if they screw up or something.
