Quick Feet & Movement

Description

The player does their footwork before reacting to the colour that the coach calls. The player then moves towards the coloured cones before working forward and backwards through the cones. On the end, the player accelerates away.

‍

Progressions

Player starts their movement from the opposite side of the coloured cone called.
Player reacts to the call from the coach as they are doing their movements through the cones. This would be to test the players ability to react quickly.

Key Coaching Points

Footwork - feet shoulder width apart, keeping on the balls of the feet.

Awareness - checking over the shoulder and what is in front to avoid objects. Make the movement as effective as we can by being aware of the space around us.

Bent knees - slightly bending of the knees to help move in different directions quickly.
