Sprint strongly to the ball, either directly forward or diagonally at a 45 degree angle to the free side. Emphasis should be on a strong first 3-4 steps. Push off strongly on opposite foot to direction of drop back and angle body to move back into space behind first movement. Emphasis again on strong first steps when returning to back space.
