OFTEN USED WITH...

1 Leg Jumps:

Players will jump as high as the can on 1 leg, after they land they will bend down touching the floor, with the non jumping leg being extended behind.

Once they player is in that position they will explode up and jump off that leg again.

Plyometrics

Degree Jumps:

Players will jump and rotatate 360 degrees in the air making sure they land on balance.

Once a player has jumped rotating one direction, the next jump they will roatate in the other direction.

Plyometrics

Bounding for Height:

Players will jump as high as they can off the one leg, once they land they will switch over to the other leg and again jump as high as they can.

This is the same technique as skipping except that each jump you are going as high as possible.

Plyometrics

Front and back- Foot Speed:

Players will find a straight line on the court.

Standing facing the line, players will jump off 2 feet back and forth over the line as quick as they can for 30 seconds.
