Each player has own area with cones placed all around, and players start bouncing the ball up and they try to hit own cone. If the cone is hit, the player takes the cone and puts on the other player's area. The goal is to move as many cones to the other player as possible.
In this drill, players work on racquet's control under the time pressure. By giving one minute for the competition players are forced to focus on the task and give their best. The coach can modify the drill by making teams that compete with each other or by putting everyone together and see how many cones they can hit in a particular period of time.
