Some skills in action
Practice drills
You can use the speed drills covered in module 7 but this time add stick and ball focussing on:
- Dribbling
- Good vision (looking up)
- Use skills (lifts & dummies)
- Add deception
- Change of pace
- Good footwork
Here are some of the speed drills just to remind you:
Here are a few more idea's for drills. You can use your imagination and make it as game like as possible.
W drill (45 degree turns using change of pace)
Using the same cones, this time follow from A-E adding a deceptive body movement or lift before changing direction
Lifts over cones moving forwards or sideways (or try other elimination skills)
Shooting drill (running to base line each hit; focus on footwork)
Pitch drills using elimination, footwork & change of pace
