11 SHOOTING CHALLENGES 🏀
If you’re looking for ways to make shooting workouts a little more competitive — without needing anything complicated — try some of these.
Save this one for your next workout or practice.
1. 3-Minute / 5-Minute 3s
One shooter with a rebounder/passer. Put 3 or 5 minutes on the clock and shoot 3s from anywhere around the arc — the only rule is you can’t shoot from the same spot twice in a row.
Score: Total makes.
2. Hubies — 3 Minutes
Use 5 spots: both corners, both wings and the top. Start in a corner and stay at each spot until you make 2 shots in a row. Then advance.
Score: Total spots completed in 3 minutes.
3. Big Shot
Shoot from 5 spots around the arc. Stay at each spot until you miss 2 shots in a row, then move to the next spot.
Score: Total makes across all 5 spots.
4. 3-In-A-Row — 3 or 5 Minutes
Shoot continuously from around the floor. Every time you make 3 consecutive shots, you earn a point. Miss before getting to three and the streak resets.
Score: Number of 3-make streaks.
5. Free Throw Golf
Shoot 18 free throws and score each attempt like golf:
Swish = -1
Made FT that touches rim = 0
Miss = +1
Lowest score wins.
6. FT Streaks — 3 Minutes
Shoot free throws continuously for 3 minutes. Instead of counting total makes, track your longest consecutive streak.
Score: Longest streak of made free throws.
7. Money Ball
Shoot from 5 spots around the 3-point line. At each spot, shoot four 1-point balls and one 2-point “money ball.”
Score: Add up your points across all 25 shots. Maximum score = 30.
8. Alford Drill
Three levels of scoring:
Layup = 1 point
15-footer = 2 points
3-pointer = 3 points
Play against a teammate and race to 21, or put 3 minutes on the clock and see who scores the most.
9. Around the World
Use 5 shooting spots. You must make a shot to advance to the next spot. Go through all 5 spots and then work your way back. Great as a 1v1 race — or pair players together and make it 2v2.
10. Gator Shooting
Shoot 3s while working from one end of the court to the other. Keep moving between baskets and accumulating makes.
Race to 25, 50 or 100 makes, or put a set amount of time on the clock and see how many you can get.
11. Solo 5-Minute 3s
No rebounder? No problem. Pick any basket, put 5 minutes on the clock and shoot 3s while getting your own rebounds.
Score: Total makes in 5 minutes.
The best part: almost all of these give players a score to beat next time.
Compete against a teammate.
Compete against another group.
Or compete against your previous best.

“She got $400 million at 23 years old.”
“I looked at him in the locker room and said, ‘Bro, do you know you just signed for $400 million?’”
“He didn’t even know the impact of that.”
“He called me the other day and asked, ‘Is it okay if I buy a Bentley?’”
“How many dudes you know that just made $400 million that will call his big bro and be like, ‘Yo, is it cool for me to buy a Bentley?’”
