Reaction and Agility drill: A rectangular grid is set up with markers. Two people are involved in this drill at a time. One starts at one marked corner and the other starts at the marker in front of him/her. The idea is for the person in the corner to move within his/her square grid and the other person to mirror the movements in his/her own square grid.
