Type: Drill

STRETCHER







Purpose

  • To develop ball reaction

  • To increase interception distance.


Description

  1. Two defenders are aligned 10 yds. Away from coach.

  2. The defenders backpedal and react to the shoulders.

  3. When the coach turns to throw to one receiver, the defender breaks.

  4. Force the defender to reach for the ball. Make him center it in his hands.


Coaching Point:

  • To start to designate one defender as the receiver. Later, have them react to your direction. Increase interception distance by placing defenders wider and deeper (hash- 20 yds. deep)
