What are a couple of good basic plays…?

for a youth basketball team? (5th grade girls)

screen plays- player A has ball, runs around screen set by player B

give-and-go- player A passes to player B, drives to hoop, gets ball back from player B, lays it up

2-3 zone- most simple zone on earth; 1 player guards the key (center), 2 players guard sides of key and corners, and 2 players press the middle perimeter and sides (only 1 at time, other stays in semi-circle next to free throw so noone can drive)

simple press- person on person
