Movement off of one another is one of the most important things to understand, yet one of the more difficult skills to execute. This session develops players ability to read their teammates and move off them to keep control of the balance of the court to develop sustained attacks.
One player starts with the ball and drops, places or throws the ball in random places around a semi circular area.
The other player in the pair stands around a metre opposite keeping a close eye on the ball. They need to react as quickly as possible to gather the ball either before it bounces or after only 1 bounce.
After 10, have the players swap over so that the passer is now reacting to the ball.
Coaching points
The aim of this drill is to get the players alert and reacting quickly to the ball and for moving in a small space.
