Question

What are the two positions of legal screening?

Answer 1

Fundamentals of the Screener (Person setting the screen):

1. Feet should be a little wider than shoulder-width apart. It's very important to have a wide, strong base.
2. Hands should be crossed across the chest (girls) or protecting the groin area (boys).
3. The screener needs to be stationary as the screen is set. Otherwise, the screener will be called for an offensive foul.
4. Body should be vertical (should not be leaning forward or backwards).
5. Square to the defender. The middle of the screener's chest should be in line with the defender's shoulder and hips.
