b.a.d.A

b.a.d.A

You've all heard of the acronym B.A.D - Ball / Attacker/ Defender

It's a useful coaching concept to explain the importance of keeping the ball away from the defender in 1v1 situations.

But there is another useful A that should be added in..... and that is ARM

Once a player performs the evasion skill to beat the defender, they should use their arm to "lock out " the defender, by using their arm to push against their back or shoulder, propelling themselves forward and the defender backwards.
