Jerry Petitgoue Dribble-Drive Offense for High School Basketball Notes

Written by Coach Peterman

I have coached at the NCAA Division 2 (Southwestern Oklahoma State University), NAIA (USAO), and JUCO Levels (Blinn College and Carl Albert State College) as well as high school. I just felt that fellow coaches especially young coaches need to constantly work on their “game”. Just like the basketball players that we coach. We as coaches need to improve ourselves. That is my story and why I do this blog.

Jerry Petitgoue is a legendary high school coach, who has put together his unique version of Dribble Drive Motion Offense for high school basketball. These options include how to get to the hoop, dump off to the post, drive the baseline, use the screen and roll or get the 3-point shot. Coach Petitgoue also shows how to run dribble drive motion offense in continuity if the defense is able to stop these options. These notes also have the 12 drills used to perfect the Dribble Drive Motion Offense.

What Coach Petitgoue has done is study the John Calipari and Vance Walberg systems and taken bits and pieces from those two great teachers and adjust his DDM to his standards. He also talks about going “opposite” with the play. If you have ran a play going to the right 2 or 3 times, flip it up and go left. The offense will never miss a beat. Coach Petitgoue used the post player in a situation (high post) where the post could take his/her man off the dribble or become a passer or screener at the high post area. The drills were pretty cool. Coach showed how you could use the 1,2, and 5 players and develop the Dribble Drive motion Offense with that main group, and then you could include the other players; 3 & 4, the next day.
