Setup:
- In pairs, place the players in a row facing the wall.
- Per pair 1 tennis ball.
Exercise:
- Player 1 stands closest to the wall and begins the exercise by throwing the ball against the wall.
- Player 2 catches the ball.
- Player 1 meanwhile runs back through the right side and then catches the ball that player 2 just threw against the wall.
- Repeat at least 20 times.

- Blue stands behind the free throw line.
- Red stands with his back to blue with the ball.
- On the starting signal, blue sprints to the baseline and sprints back to defend
- Red sprints to the center line and back to attack.
- Always score.
- The attacker is given very little space to maneuver past the defender
- The attacker is not allowed to look at the ball
- The attacker accelerates
- The defender starts working on his footwork
- Once past the hats, the field is wider and scoring is possible
- Always score
- Variation: the defender stands in the middle of the narrowed field and the attacker starts further back so you get a more game-like situation

- Extra defender under goal
- Regression:

- Teams of 2 people
- 5 hats on one side of the bucketline
- Make slides to hat, pick up hat and bring hat to other bucketline with slides
