Sharon Garner Coach, England

DESCRIPTION

Use small space, about 2m x 3m, in pairs with a ball. The feeder is standing just beyond the marked area with the ball. The attacking player starts at one of the back corners and drives on the diagonal to receive a straight pass ahead of them at the front. They return the pass. Turning their hips inwards, they then drive towards the back corner, using peripheral vision to keep the feeder and ball in sight. The feeder will send a lifted ball into that corner for the attacking player to take in the air on the run. They return that ball, then turn their hips again to run on the next diagonal. The pattern continues. First time through, at a pace to help understand the movement. Swap over. Repeat building the intensity. Give a specific number of repeats or time to complete each set.

COACHING POINTS

Feet under body and keeping them moving until ball is secured. Using arms to run until ball has been released, then grabbing out to catch it. Small jump to catch to help control momentum especially at the back space. Landing upright and balanced with weight over both or landing foot. Strong onwards pass. Push off outside foot as changing direction. Hips always in direction of travel whilst body angled open to view feeder and ball - this is especially tricky on the back straight run! Keep head and eyes up.
