Zone Offense Concepts

To prepare you for Don Casey's topic at the 2010 Can-Am Coaching Clinic - The Temple of Zones - we wanted to present some past clinic zone offense notes from Don Meyer.

Zone Offense:

1.
Beat it down the floor
2.
Rebound
3.
Get ball in the pocket with players that can make plays looking Rim, Post & Opposite
4.
Screen out, Seal out / Forward guarding guy, passes to top & makes cut off screen into pocket. Post then seals out on forward on catch
5.
Throw back into 3 or 4 players / Loop Flash. Cut thru on baseline with 4-man off post screen. Loop shooter to top & flash opposite wing. Same action
6.
Loop Skip / Post up the next defender. Make defender go over the top of the screen in to allow pass to baseline to post

Also here is a commonly used overload set play vs. a 2-3 Zone in video format:
