Have you seen this “THATCHER” (Throw & Catch) FOOTWORK DRILL?

It’s great for midfielders and defenders 👊

Works on throwing, catching, footwork AND conditioning 😅

Use as warmup drill or during practice ⏱️

Let's talk about the 🥍 DRAW... here is a great draw sequence to warm up the hands and work on placement around the circle.

⚠️ Don't forget... the 🔑 to the draw is all about the draw TEAM - NOT just the draw specialist!

Happy #FunTipFriday!

This is one of my favorite drills. It's a fast, whole team Give-N-Go drill starting at the 50-yard line and ending with a shot and clear.

#ProTips:
✅ Lots of communication
✅ Lots of spare balls
✅ Back each other up to keep the drill moving

Quick Wrist Strength Warm-Up Routine

1. Helicopter: keep arm straight
2. Clock: hit all numbers over & back
3. Basketball fun: over & back touches, increase your speed while staying low in “de” position
4. Quick sticks: full stick
5. Quick sticks: weak side

Question for all you attackers out there:

How many times have you shot too quickly vs remaining calm and moving your feet?

You don’t even have to answer, I know you’ve done it!

So grab a goal + cones and practice Dancing Around The Crease!
