OFTEN USED WITH...

1 Leg Jumps:

Players will jump as high as the can on 1 leg, after they land they will bend down touching the floor, with the non jumping leg being extended behind.

Once they player is in that position they will explode up and jump off that leg again.

Fitness

Backboard Touches:

The player will stand just in front of the backboard(to the side of the rim).

The player will jump and reach out with both arms to try and touch the backboard. Once the player lands they will jump straight back up.

Fitness

Cat and Mouse:

Set up two wide cones with 2 teams facing each other.

Both teams are going in the same direction around the cones.

The goal is to catch up with the other team to tag or over take them. The team that does this is the winner.

Each player will complete a full circle around both cones before passing to the next player.
