  • Equal numbers at each station. Start with 1 ball but quickly introduce multiple balls - up to 4 depending on numbers
  • (A) starts with the ball and runs down the middle of the groups before kicking to (B)
  • Following this are a chain of zig-zag pattern handballs that will intersect (A)'s path when more balls arrive
  • Once the ball reaches station (E), coach feeds another ball to next in line at (A).
  • Once there are 3 or 4 balls going at once, players need to have a quick peripheral scan to ensure they're not about to collide with someone, and take evasive action if necessary
  • (A) will be the most likely to collide, so should practice sidestepping or ducking inside rather than just standing and waiting flat-footed for the player to get out the way.
