From driveway to D1, the shooting machines worth investing in this year, and how to choose between them. Hand-picked by Game Ball, Australia's exclusive Dr. Dish distributor.
Five machines, five use cases. Each one is the Game Ball pick for its audience in 2026.
The flagship Dr. Dish, 21.5" on-machine touchscreen, 250+ pro-trainer drills and workouts, multi-player tracking. The same machine Australia's top coaches and academies run today.
Up to 1,000 shots per hour without ever chasing a rebound. Folds compact for the garage, single-person setup, mobile app for tracking.
The most affordable fully programmable Dr. Dish. 8" touchscreen, multi-range custom passing, 1,000 shots per hour, the workhorse for AU school programs.
Clamps onto your existing hoop. Up to 800 shots per hour using two basketballs, manually rotating 180° return ramp, no power or app pairing required. The lightest and most affordable way to put up more reps.
TMS analytics, 250+ pre-built drills, patented away-from-the-basket net. The choice for programs that want a coach's tool, not just a rebounder.
Published pricing where we have it. Flagship machines are quote-only, financing typically 24–60 months on chattel mortgage.
Five things that should drive the decision, in order.
A driveway / garage / single court fits the Home or the iC3. The Rebel+, All-Star+ and CT+ roll on wheels too, but they're larger, so plan a storage spot near the court and a roof high enough for proper shooting arc.
Entry from $949 (iC3 sale price + free shipping, RRP $1,599) for casual home use. Home model from $7,999. Rebel+ now $9,999 plus $500 freight. All-Star+ and CT+ are quote-only, financing on 24–60 month terms is the standard path for school / club / facility buyers.
Single shooter at home? Home or iC3. Small-group academy? Rebel+ or All-Star+. Whole-squad development at game speed? CT+, built for multi-player stat tracking.
Daily program use justifies the All-Star+ or CT+. Weekend / weekly home use is well served by the Home model. The iC3 is a great daily-grind option for individuals.
If the coach wants to run drills hands-off from the machine itself, the CT+'s touchscreen is the modern standard. If you want analytics across multiple sessions, the All-Star+'s TMS is the move.
The two big brands in shooting machines, compared spec by spec for Australian programs.
