Excellent drills, very detailed videos. Useful site for my U15 boys team.
How do you disguise the slap hit?
What are good practices to get players to hit a flat ball, instead of bobbling around
I am just starting to coach adults after 3yrs of coaching juniors. Should I keep to the same drills or find more complicated drills?
Hi, When I add power to my slap hit the ball tends to be hard but quite bouncy. Any ideas on what could be causing this as it stops me using it as a pass. If I "stun" the ball (i.e. use an abbreviated follow through) the ball tends to stay flat but obviously loses a lot of power. Also, if I deliberately choose a contact point much higher up the stick that also seems to keep it flatter but power is also lost here too. Any help appreciated. Mark
Are there any drills to force players to stay low

could someone comment on the 5 yard rule when entering the scoring area? There always seams to be a lot of wrong information regarding this rule.
