BEGINNER 

• All players start behind the restraining line, or behind the end-line (or touching their goal), with coaches having all of the balls contained in a ball bag/bucket (40-52 balls minimum for large groups).

• *Variation #1A (3 min):  "Group Timed."  The coach throws all of the balls into one end of the floor and on the whistle players are instructed to run and scoop up all of the loose balls, eventually running them back to the coach (placing them in the ball bag or the net), in as little time as possible (stop watch required).  PLAYERS ARE ONLY ALLOWED TO SCOOP ONE BALL AT A TIME.  Have players participate in the drill twice, in an attempt to beat their previous group time.
  

• *Variation #1B (5 min):  "Full-Floor."  This drill could also be done from one end to the other (full-floor), as another variation.  Keep track of the shortest time, for both variations, throughout the course of the season (using the same amount of balls each time - count them).

*Most common error = players not working hard
