Players start on one side of the court and have a ball in their hands, and another in the middle of the court.
They overhand pass the ball in their hands forward so that it drops on the other side of the laying ball.
The players then run, jump over the ball and underhand pass the ball back to a teammate who will be waiting at the starting position. The next player will then do the drill.
Have players pass the ball high so that they have time to run and set up position.
This drill helps teach players to control ball trajectory and watch the court simultaneously.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
