A basketball shooting machine is one of those tools that changes how you train. Instead of relying on a rebounder, a player can take hundreds of shots at their own pace – from set spots, on a timer, with instant feedback. Dr. Dish sets the standard in this category, and the full range is available at Hoop And Court.
What is a Dr. Dish machine and how does it work
Dr. Dish is an automatic basketball pass-back machine. It sits under the hoop, catches every shot (make or miss), and returns the ball to a chosen spot on the court. The player receives the pass, shoots, and the cycle repeats – no partner, no downtime collecting balls.
In practice that means 300–500 shots in an hour instead of 80–120 when running after every miss. That is a fundamental upgrade in shooting training – why Dr. Dish is used by NBA teams, academies, and elite players worldwide.
All Dr. Dish models fold to similar size (about 199 × 77 × 102 cm) and deploy in under two minutes. They differ in interface, programming, and analytics.
Dr. Dish IC3 – rim attachment for everyone
Dr. Dish IC3 (3,799 PLN) is unlike other Dr. Dish products – not a full machine but a rim-mounted attachment. It catches shots, shapes arc with its design, and allows up to 16 shots per minute. It weighs only 16 kg and fits in 56 × 56 × 150 cm.
IC3 does not pass the ball back – the player retrieves it. At 3,799 PLN it is not a full machine, but an effective tool for arc and rhythm work for individuals or small academies on a budget.
- Who it is for – individual players working on shooting form, coaches wanting a simple shooting station, academies or clubs with limited equipment budget.

Dr. Dish Home (29,399 PLN) is the first full pass-back machine at Hoop And Court – it catches and returns to programmed spots. Control via smartphone app with 250+ preset drills plus dribbling and agility work.

Dr. Dish Rebel+ – for teams and coaches

Rebel+ programs shot locations, tracks twos, threes, and free throws in one session, customises shot order, and includes an anti-glare black net. Wi-Fi with free software updates and 5-year warranty.

The swivel net supports post play and finishing at the rim – drills other models cannot replicate. CT+ includes 50+ preset group drills, full workouts with smooth transitions, offline mode, extended stats, team leaderboards, and "Me vs Me" against personal bests.

A shooting machine changes the philosophy of shooting practice. Players stop spending 60–70% of session time chasing balls and focus on rhythm, technique, and confidence from specific spots. Results show within weeks of consistent use.
All Dr. Dish models except IC3 fold and unfold in under two minutes and work indoors or outdoors on a home court. Dr. Dish Home at 122 kg is the lightest full model, easing moves between spaces or seasonal storage.
Dr. Dish is used by NBA teams and pro academies worldwide – not because it is trendy, but because it works. If shooting is the priority – home player, junior academy, or pro club – a Dr. Dish machine changes the game.
The full Dr. Dish range is at Hoop And Court – from IC3 at 3,799 PLN to CT+ at 59,399 PLN. All models carry manufacturer warranty and delivery across Poland.
