'Must-Have'
with Dick Bennett, former Washington St., Wisconsin, and UW-Green Bay head coach.
The essential parts of the blocker/mover offense are broken down in the half court as Coach Bennett explains all aspects. Bennett shows the whole offense first, then breaks down the parts later in the DVD. He introduces the concept of "sides" meaning that the blocker has the job to screen others on his side of the floor. Excellent!
