Rebounding Technique

- See the shot
Players must be aware of when and where a shot is taken.  Whether on defense or offense, they should know at all times.  The defender guarding the shooter has the responsibility of letting his teammates know when a shot is being taken.  The words "shot," "short," or "long" can be used to give the rebounding teammates an advantage.

- Assume the shot will be missed
Every shot attempt means a potential rebound.  Players must learn to always assume that every shot will be a miss and go to their rebounding assignment.

- Locate the opponent

- Go to the opponent and block out
The purpose of blocking out is to gain a positional advantage over an opponent for a rebound.  A player is more likely to get a rebound off a missed shot if positioned closer to the basket than the opponent.  This is called inside position, because you are positioned on the inside of your opponent.  The correct stance for blocking an opponent out is feet set, knees bent, feet should be parallel and shoulder-width apart, arms raised, elbows bent, and palms up/forward.

- Go to the ball

- Get and keep the ball

- Move the ball out or down the court
