Lots of good suggestions here but I’ve seen and been part of the good and bad in detailed practice from more unstructured to 3-4 min intervals.  You have to see what works for your team and do it.  Focus on basics…layups…rebounds…defense and passing.  It’s so much simpler at that age than it looks.  You need a pick and roll pretty much only.  2 inbounds…1 like a stack and one a lane box
cross.  Again simple.  Play king of the court and run more full court stuff if you have access.  It’s always surprising when teams only do half court and driveway that they don’t know what to do when there is 60-70 feet to cover.  And make sure you get them running.  Basketball can get so drill oriented that the kids stand around alot.  The best thing you can do for them is get their hearts going and get them confident athletically.

Also get extra clipboards for smashing and a good firm chair to throw.  Refs will give your team the benefit of the doubt if they think you’re going to throw a chair at them
