Each player gets a partner, and the team lines up along the sideline. The first person in each pair steps up to the line, and does 6 lengths of the court (width wise). 1 consists of there and back. When first player is done, his/her partner then does 6. When both are done 6, the first person then repeats doing 5. Then partner does 5. All the way down to 1.

Have players line up along the baseline. When whistle goes, the players run the length of the gym, and do 10 wall taps (with both hands) against the wall, and then sprint to the other end and do 9 wall taps. Then sprint to opposite end and do 8 wall taps… Until the players get down to 1 wall tap. After one tap, they do one last sprint.

Put your back against the wall and slide down until your knees are at a 90 degree angle and your knees are not over your toes. Do not put your hands on the wall or your knees. Keep them out in front of you where coach can see them. Hold this position until coach says it is enough.
