DESCRIPTION

Players stand in a line on the sideline, with balls set up on the line opposite.

On the coach's whistle, the player run towards the balls, pick them up and bring them back to the player's starting spot, before running to the other sideline.

From here, they repeat the drill, running to the ball, picking it up and bringing it back with them.

COACHING POINTS

Using this drill at the start of a session is a great way to increase heart rate and help players warm up their legs.

PROGRESSION

Put balls on both touchlines so that players switch the ball to the other side every time they run.

Players work in pairs with a ball between them, starting in a squat position. They pass the ball high, jump, and set it to their teammate who repeats this.

Pass And Cross Centre Line:

Two players stand on attack lines at either side of the net, while a third player stands between them at the net.

One of the players at the attack line passes the ball and then receives it back from the player in the middle, who now crosses the centre line, ducking under the net, before doing the same with the other player.
