What are some good drills for instructing youth on setting picks?

Answer
Hi Chris,

It is hard to get any points accross to young players as all they want to do is shoot and have fun. Not that basketball isnt fun but there is a lot of hard work iivolved in the game. Here is a good site that shows the proper way to set a pick. Also I am inclucing a link for coaching youth basketball. Good luck!
