Defense On a String is a revolutionary team-defense training tool designed for both basketball and lacrosse programs that want to build disciplined, connected defenders.
Built with five adjustable waist belts linked by durable bungee cords, the system physically reinforces the concept of playing “on a string.” When one player rotates, hedges, slides, or closes out, every teammate feels immediate feedback — a subtle reminder to shift, recover, help, and communicate.
The result? A defense that moves as one unit instead of five individuals.
Why Coaches Love It
Teaches help-side principles naturally — Players feel when they’re out of position.
Builds muscle memory — Reinforces movement every time the ball moves.
Improves communication — Athletes learn to anticipate and react together.
Works for multiple systems — Man-to-man, zone, pack-line, motion defenses, and lacrosse slide packages.
Game-speed accountability — Instant feedback creates better habits in less practice time.
