This is a 3-2 zone press, great for setting good traps and quick points.
The defensive players playing up high are very fast and great defenders the ball side player 4 is usually our safety and the 5 is a good pass stealer.

The ball is inbounded to the left side 1 and 2 will trap 3 will play the middle and 5 will come over also for more pressure in case the ball handler gets around 2 or for a steal on a pass.
4 plays safety making sure no one gets behind him.

2 and 5 will come to the right side

If the ball handler goes up the sideline past 3.

5 will come up and trap at the corner.
At the same time the other 2 will be coming back looking for a steal on an up the court pass or another trap on the other side.
