TURN & UP







Purpose

  • The purpose of this drill is to help improve the player’s ability to catch the ball near a sideline and instead of going out of bounds, turn upfield and go.


Procedure

  • Use the same procedure as the tap dance drill. The ball should be thrown 7 to 8 yards in front of player so he can adjust to turning upfield. The drill is used from both sides.


Coaching Points

  • Emphasize catching the ball and then stress the use of good body control to turn upfield, staying in bounds.
