Tennis: Running the gauntlet (no ball)

Sportplan has been very helpful in guiding me through my first year...
Bill, Newly qualified coach

DESCRIPTION

In a designated area, using lines or cones, the white team must attempt to dodge past each defending player.

Defending players can only use sideways movements in order to prevent this.

COACHING POINTS

Defenders to be light on their feet and use small, quick steps to move.

Attackers to use sharp and committed movements.

Once the white player has reached the end of the area they become a defender and the first blue player becomes the next worker (to ensure all players have a chance to practice their getting free moves).
