Ultimate Drills

Split into groups of 4 and spread out the players evenly across the width of the playing area (for example, 4 players 2m apart from each other forming a line 6m long) Start with all discs on one side of the field. Teams pass the disc along the line to the far side, and back again. The slowest team is eliminated and must sit down. Keep going until there is a winning team. If a pass is not caught then it must be repeated

Have three or more players stand together on a start line, with a finish line at a desired distance Number the players The objective is to get the disc from the start line to the finish line When someone is holding the disc, they may only pivot, they may not walk or run Player 1 starts with the disc; they may only throw to Player 2. Player 2 can only throw to Player 3, and so on. The last player can only throw to Player 1. Players can move freely, but must stand still to receive the disc. All players must throw the disc at least once before reaching the finish line

Create a playing area which has two large areas for each team and a central out-of-bounds area; each team stays in their side. Teams are allowed up to 3 passes between themselves, then must throw the disc into the other area. If the disc is not caught and lands inside the receiving team’s area, award 1pt to the throwing team.

Players form two queues facing each other Two discs per queue Players take it in turns to run from the front of their queue towards the other; the next person in the opposite queue throws the disc towards them The objective is to catch while running, rather than slowing down After throwing the first disc, the player runs towards the other queue to catch the second disc After catching, the player hands the first disc to the person now stood at the front of the queue and joins the back of that queue

Face your partner and stand a few yards away. See how many passes can be completed in 1 minute

Player 1 and Player 2 start facing the same direction, into the space where the disc will be thrown Player 2 has the disc Player 2 turns and throws to Player 1. Player 2 then runs across in front of Player 1, who throws into space for Player 2 to catch Aim to throw into the space in front of Player 2 Don’t throw too hard; this is easier to execute if thrown softly

Select around 10% of the players to be "taggers". The rest evade them. The evaders are given 3 frisbees to carry between them When players are tagged, they must stand still with their arms out to their sides Players can be freed by catching a disc (if they don't have one), or by completing a pass (if they do have a disc)

Form groups of three One player stands in front of the thrower as the "screen"; the thrower then pivots out to the side so they can see the receiver Screens should stand still with arms by their sides Throw the disc. The thrower then runs to the person who caught the disc, stands in front of them to be the "screen". Repeat this process until everyone is comfortable with the reason for pivoting

Player 1 and Player 2 start facing the same direction, into the space where the disc will be thrown Player 2 has the disc Player 2 turns and throws to Player 1. Player 2 then runs across in front of Player 1, who throws into space for Player 2 to catch Aim to throw into the space in front of Player 2 Don’t throw too hard; this is easier to execute if thrown softly

Split into groups of 4 and spread out the players evenly across the width of the playing area (for example, 4 players 2m apart from each other forming a line 6m long) Start with all discs on one side of the field. Teams pass the disc along the line to the far side, and back again. The slowest team is eliminated. Keep going until there is a winning team. If a pass is not caught then it must be repeated

Split the group into teams of 8 or more (i.e. 4 players on each side) When a player has run to the back of the queue, get them to sit down. Once everyone has been through once as a warm up, repeat again as a race. The first team all sat down is the winner! Award points for the fastest team (1pt for the slowest team, 2pts for the next slowest, etc). Repeat the race until one team scores

Split into groups of 3 One disc per group Form a triangle, 5 metres from each athlete Players must fake the pass anticlockwise to one partner, and then use the forehand throw to the other partner

Players stand in two lines facing each other, slightly off-set to form a zig zag line. The disc starts at one end of one line. Players throw the disc to the person next along the chain, so that the disc zigzags all the way along. Incomplete passes should be repeated. Try to get the disc all the way along the line and back again without a turnover; if this is done, all players take 2 steps back and try again. See who can get the furthest apart / complete the most passes.

In pairs, players are encouraged to practice fakes and throws with a pivot Ensure that players are pivoting on the correct leg Try to make your fake look like your throw; can your partner tell whether you're about to throw or fake?

 .                        Three handlers are positioned in a ‘V’ shape, with Player 1 starting with the disc There is a defender standing between Player 1 and Player 3 Player 2 stands at the bottom of the ‘V’ shape, forming a triangle with Players 1 & 3 The objective is to get the disc from Player 1 to Player 3 without throwing near the defender.  To achieve this, Player 1 should turn to throw to Player 2, who is then able to throw to Player 3

Receiver 1 makes a cut underneath; Handler 1 throws them the disc Just as Receiver 1 is about to catch, Handler 2 makes a short cut downfield Receiver 1 passes the disc to Handler 2. This should be a very short pass. Receiver 2 then cuts – this can be a cut towards the disc, away from the disc, a V cut, etc – and Handler 2 passes the disc
