The Birch

This drill really works on the player’s endurance and speed and helps to show you the players that really are willing to work and the ones who are not.

Instructions

Seperate the players into 2 equal groups making group 1 line up along the baseline. Then make them run 10 sprints, down and back counting as 2, in one minute. Then make group 2 do this. Next, group 1 runs 9 in 54 seconds followed by group 2. next the groups run 8 in 48, 7 in 42, 6 in 36, 5 in 30, 4 in 24, 3 in 18, and finally 2 in 10.

Variations

• You can do this drill in that if a player fails to make the goal each and every time you can make him run an extra 10 in a minute or if a player does not work hard during his/her running you can make them run extra.

Tips

• Make sure the players hustle, it is not directly important that the players make the time, although it is good, but it is important that they hustle and work hard and don’t give up. This shows you who is willing to work to achieve success.
