What it is
- In-Game Adjustments at the High School Level is a coaching concept that high school teams sometimes need to adjust defenses in-game based on what is working.
- If the opponent is exploiting man-to-man (great ball movement, lots of cuts), switching to zone can disrupt their rhythm.
- If a full-court man press is being beaten repeatedly, switching to a 1-2-1-1 diamond or 2-2-1 zone press provides more structure and might be more effective.
How it works
- The adjustment requires clear communication and adjustment drills.
- Changing Press Strategy: If a full-court man press is being beaten repeatedly, switching to a 1-2-1-1 diamond or 2-2-1 zone press provides more structure and might be more effective.
- Adjusting Offensive System: If motion offense is not creating shots, running more set plays provides structure.
- If set plays are being scouted and shut down, reverting to motion might create better opportunities.
- Matchup Hunting: In the second half, coaches might intentionally seek mismatches.
