Variation #1 (2 min): "Loose Ball" *top diagram* - Demo (1 min): "Attacking A Loose Ball" (Keep It In Front Of You) - Have players line up in pairs 10-15 metres apart, rolling (underhand motion - with their hand if necessary) a ball back and forth. - As players progress, coaches can have players practice different techniques ("scoop," "scoop, tuck & turn," "scoop to triple-threat position." - Most common error = waiting for the ball to arrive instead of "attacking" it Variation #2A (2 min): "Loose Ball & Cradle" *bottom diagram* - Same as the drill variation above except one partner scoops the loose ball and then cradles around the partner (left side & right side) that rolled them the ball. Alternate back and forth. - Most common error = not protecting the ball as they cradle around their partner
