Ground ball race to goal (1v1)

Setup

Two lines side by side at the restraining line. Coach rolls a ball out front. First pair races; whoever scoops it attacks the goal, the other plays defense. Then the next pair.

Coaching points

• Get low: bend the knees, not the back
• Stick parallel to the ground, bottom hand low
• Run through the ball, don't stop at it
• Scoop, two hands, head up, then go
