Description
A speed, agility and quickness (SAQ) circuit that ends with a shot. The player goes through the speed ladder and over three mini hurdles. The coach passes into the box and the player finishes first time.
Organisation
Speed ladder and three mini hurdles 18m from goal. The coach serves from the side with a ball pile. Players go one after the other with about 30 seconds of rest. Change the ladder pattern each round: one foot per space, two feet per space, lateral steps.
Coaching points
- Stay on the balls of the feet with short, quick steps.
- Arms drive with the legs. Keep the head up.
- Out of the hurdles, look at the server and adjust your steps to the ball.
- Finish first time with your laces, low to the corner.
