Teaching tall girls to jump
I have a few tall girls in my team and they have never needed to jump for balls, do you have some drills or games that will help them learn to jump

Hi Susan,
We have a number of jumping drills to help you out- simply type `jump` or `jumping` into the search bar, and the drills of Sportplan are at your disposal. I`ve included one below that you can use in your next training session. A simple move and receive drill, which requires your players to run forwards then backwards - ready for a jump to pluck the ball out of the air!
Hope that helps,
The Sportplan Team
Power jumps
DESCRIPTION
Players work in pairs, with one ball between them. Facing each other the player without the ball drives forward, taking 5 steps forwards and then 5 steps back before then receiving a high pass from their partner. Repeat 10 times before swapping roles.
