Description

"A must read for any coach looking to improve his or her defensive approach and training." - Steve Lanpher : Head Coach at Randolph College "If you're looking for help building and thinking about all things defense, you've gotta check out this book. Coach Jagacki is one of the best defensive minds out there." - Stu Hartenstein : Assistant Coach at Dension University "This is the revolution that defense has been waiting for." - Lee Deforest : Head Coach at Florida Coastal Prep Lockdown Defense is a book focused on developing elite defenders. More than just data points and coaching cliches, this book offers advanced techniques, new fundamentals, training cues, in-depth nuance and multiple drills to help develop Lockdown Defenders. In an era dominated so much by offensive spacing and 1v1 schemes, individual on-ball defenders have become crucial to team defensive success. Lockdown Defense is the ultimate book on developing this critical aspect of defense. The book contains 200 pages with over 60 techniques and 28 drills expanding across 10 chapters of individual defense: on-ball, closeouts, post defense, gap defense, rim protection, ball screen defense, recovery techniques, team scheme and toughness. It's time defense had a revolution.
