Points of focus:

The focus in this exercise is on the approach.
Make yourself small when making the approach.
Try to pick up the pace of the ball.
Let the ball roll past you and take the ball as late as possible.
Make sure that the ball does not rise when taking it on. So keep your stick straight and not angled.
