Combination Ladders and Cones 3:

Player line up behind the first ladder and then take it in turns to run up the ladder, making sure they place both feet between each rung.

After this they then shuffle forward and back along the cones.

When they reach the final cone they should use a burst of acceleration to run forward and complete the final ladder, the same as before, before jogging to the back of the line ready to go again!

Ladders

Hopping - Alternate Legs:

Players hop on the alternate legs, placing one foot in each rung of the ladder.

Ladders

Hop Scotch Ladder jumps:

Just like back on the school playground, players must hop scotch their way up the ladder.

For those who don't remember - two feet together in each rung and then two feet on the outside of the same rung before then jumping feet together into the next rung.

Repeat.

Ladders

Hopping - One Foot:

Players hop on the same leg throughout, placing one foot in each rung of the ladder.
