  • Players spreads out along a sideline. Leave a least 5m of space between players, wrap around baselines if necessary.
  • There are 2 phases to this drill - set running styles along sidelines/baselines, then random runs with specific footwork into the court.
  • Phase 1: Start at 50% intensity. The 4 lines each have a different running style. Sideline 1: intermittant sprints, then:-
    Baseline 1: Side-step
    Sideline 2: High Knee Skipping
    Baseline 2: Backwards
  • Phase 1 (cont'd): Perform lap 1 at 50%, then 75%, then 100%
  • Phase 2: Now the sidelines/baselines are just for recovery jogging. Everyone jogs around these until coach says 'go!', at which point players run into the court, practising several dodging leads to the left, then right
  • Phase 2 (cont'd): Call 'stop!' and players return to jogging around the sideline
