DVD
with Lorenzo Romar,
University of Washington Head Coach

In this DVD, Coach Romar shares the vital components that form the foundation of his successful program. The Huskie program is based on defense, rebounding, sharing the ball and competing. Up-tempo basketball is a staple in Romar's system, as is defense and rebounding. Exerting pressure on the ball helps the Huskies make their opponent feel pressured and uncomfortable. His defense picks up the ball as soon as it changes hands and tries to eliminate any direct penetrating passes. Romar uses five players to illustrate his transition game. Players fill lanes early and run the floor hard. Keys to scoring are spacing, not letting the ball stick in your hand, shot selection, screening and hitting the open man. The idea of up-tempo is putting maximum pressure on the defense, baseline to baseline. Up-tempo full court drills are imperative to developing this style of play. Drills on this DVD are Weave, Rush, Weave-Rush combo, Three Lanes (five sequences) and 5-on-5 transition. This DVD can lead the way for your team to be successful playing up-tempo basketball.
