Blitz Attack Youth Motion Offense
A Consistent Scoring Offense That's Easy to Implement
Blends the best of Zoom Action and Motion Principles with Aggressive Dribble Drive.
Designed Specifically To Help Youth Teams Compete
Are your players struggling to score?
Do they seem hesitant and confused on offense?
Are they just running around in circles and getting in the way of one another?
I’ve been there. I get it.
That’s why I created the Blitz Attack Scoring System – a youth motion offense basketball training program designed specifically for players in grades third through high school.
After years of frustration trying to run motion and read & react offenses, I developed the Blitz Attack to maximize scoring for developing players. This innovative continuity offense blends the best of Zoom Action and motion principles with aggressive dribble penetration.
The Blitz Attack uses carefully crafted spacing, screening actions, and passing sequences to create relentless driving lanes. Players learn to make quick reads and attack openings in the defense through dribble drives or kick-outs to open shooters.
The simplicity of the Blitz Attack allows younger players to pick it up quickly. As they gain experience in the system, they develop skills far beyond their age:
- Shooting accuracy from increased repetitions
- Court awareness and passing skills through motion principles
- Scoring instincts by exploiting weaknesses in the defense
- Leadership and confidence by having a defined offensive role
A parent from my team had this to say, “ I don’t know what you did, but our players are making reads and seeing openings and making cuts…far above their age level. The difference in a few practices is amazing!“
The Blitz Attack Scoring System has proven results across my youth teams:
- 49% increase in points per game
- 55% boost in offensive efficiency
- 62% higher field goal percentage
- Dramatic growth in assists per game
Unleash your players’ full offensive potential with the Blitz Attack Scoring System. Let me show you how to implement this unstoppable offense designed for youth basketball players.
I wanna thank you coach for the blitz! Just played our first game of the year. The other team had zero and I mean zero answer for it (Blitz). When they cheated the play we had wide open back door cuts for Layups! Thank you for sharing your amazing knowledge with the world!
1.) Score More Points with High-Percentage Shots
The Blitz Attack puts relentless pressure on the defense by constantly attacking the paint. Through carefully designed motion and screening actions, players can penetrate the triple gaps the offense creates and get high-percentage shots.
As defenders help on dribble penetration, drivers are instructed to use a Peek & Pivot move and kick-out for open 3-pointers or a secondary blitz attack.
With the Blitz Attack, you will learn how to:
- Implement screening actions that create mismatches and driving lanes
- Develop a scoring mentality focused on attacking the basket
- Draw fouls by putting pressure on the rim
- Move the ball quickly to find open perimeter shooters
The Blitz Attack leads to more layups, free throws, and open 3-pointers – the highest percentage shots in basketball. By focusing on relentless penetration and inside-out play, teams see dramatic increases in scoring.
I’ll provide the strategic framework, spacing principles, and offensive rules to unleash your team’s full scoring potential.
2) Get All Players Involved and Developing
Every player has talent. You just have to find their starting point and help them grow from there. This is one of my favorite player development quotes.
The Blitz Attack provides opportunities for players at all skill levels to contribute. Built-in motion, screening actions, and passing sequences engage all five players on every possession.
Even developing players can execute their roles within the framework of the offense. As they improve, the system expands to take advantage of their growing talent.
I’ll show you how to:
- Teach appropriate reads and decision-making based on players’ experience levels
- Keep less-skilled players involved through off-ball movement
- Challenge advanced players to make aggressive drives while maintaining floor balance
- Foster an unselfish environment where players make the extra pass
3) Teach the Fundamentals of Offensive Basketball
The Blitz Attack goes beyond just set plays – it develops true basketball IQ. Players learn to read the defense and make smart decisions on the fly – you determine the reads you want to teach based on our team’s basketball IQ.
The offense provides a framework through preset patterns and spacing rules. Within this structure, players learn essential offensive skills:
- How to properly execute screens to create separation
- When to backcut against overplaying defenders
- How to attack gaps and make quick reads off the dribble
- Where to move the ball against shifting defenses
More advanced players will master nuanced counters like:
- Faking handoffs to misdirect defenders
- Know the right countermoves based on defensive read
- Playing through contact on drives to draw fouls
4.) Counter Any Defense with Built-In Adjustments - yes, even zone defenses!
The Blitz Attack is designed to succeed against any defense – man, zone, press, and hybrid schemes. It provides simple counters for different defensive strategies.
Against man defense, use screening actions to create mismatches and driving lanes. Implement misdirection with handoffs and backcuts to prevent overplaying.
Against zones, continue to emphasize screens and handoffs, perimeter player movement, and exploit the zone’s gaps with the dribble.
Within the framework of the Blitz Attack, you’ll have effective adjustments for any defense:
- Built-in zones offenses to attack 2-3, 1-3-1, 1-2-2, etc.
- Quick counters to beat full-court pressure
- Ways to prevent overplaying and deny switching actions
5.) Adapt the Offense to Your Team's Strengths
The Blitz Attack is designed to maximize your team’s strengths, regardless of roster makeup. It can be simplified or expanded to fit your players’ skill sets.
If you have a talented ball handler, utilize more pick and rolls, isolation drives, and penetration actions. For strong shooters, emphasize inside-out play with kick-outs to open perimeter players.
6) Develop Skilled Players with an Emphasis on Fundamentals
The Blitz Attack builds better all-around players by focusing practice time on core offensive skills. We call these are daily vitamins.
- Attacking the rim off the dribble with different finishing moves
- Learning how to read the defense and make quick scoring decisions
- Moving the ball quickly to find and hit open teammates
- Mastering perimeter shooting, 3-pointers, and interior finishing
- Learning to cut, screen, and get open without the ball
- Executing handoffs and making reads off screens
7) Develop High Basketball IQ and Decision-Making
The Blitz Attack goes beyond just running plays – it teaches players to read the floor and make smart decisions.
Within the framework, players get endless reps against varying defenses and situations. Over time, they develop sharp instincts for exploiting weaknesses in the defense.
8) Unlock Dual Domination - Hidden Defensive Edge from the Blitz Attack
A hidden benefit of implementing the Blitz Attack is improved defense. By facing this offense in practice, your players will learn to defend high-level concepts:
- Aggressive dribble penetration
- Handoffs with misdirection
- Constant off-ball screening actions
- Sharp cuts and motion sequences
- Quick counters that challenge their positioning
9) A Complete and Integrated System
The Blitz Attack is not just a collection of plays – it is a comprehensive offensive system. All components are strategically interconnected for versatility.
10) Players Love the Freedom and Fast-Paced Play
The Blitz Attack is an exciting, fast-paced offense that keeps all players engaged and having fun. Rather than scripted playcalling, it promotes flow, creativity, and smart decisions.
