Hi Olivia. To perform a drag flick, you can follow these key steps:
- Approach: Start with 2 or 3 steps from the head of the D, depending on your preference.
- Pick Up: The ball should be picked up well behind your body. Place your stick on the ball as you approach, without touching it until your body is beyond the ball.
- Skip: You can either kick your feet together or grapevine your legs during the follow-through.
- Flick: Rotate your full body to perform the flick. Move the ball from your back foot through to your front foot, rotating your body to add power.
