Ball Collection - Reflex test
DESCRIPTION
Both players move in the same direction with the feeder moving backwards. The feeder must play the ball to any side of the receiving player, within arm's reach, for them to react to, collect and pass back as quickly as possible. Players progress like this from one side of the court to the other, taking short fast steps, staying up on the balls of their feet.

The penalty is set where the defender infringed, unless it is a disadvantage to the attacking player. So you can potentially take a pass or shot from just under 3ft. Once the penalty is set, normal footwork rules would apply, so yes, you could take a step in, as long as you donât reground the the grounded foot. Hope that helps :)
