Star drill

This drill is good to warm up your fingers, especially before a big game.

Instructions

Start by making 5 lines in the shape of a star on the court. Next, have one ball in the captain’s hands. They pass the ball to the player oppsite to them. The receiver then passes the ball to the person to the right of the original passer. They do the same, and this keeps going throughout the drill. The second thing you need to remember is to have a minimum of 10 people, with the person following the ball every time. If you don’t follow the ball straight through, then you won’t get to your place in time to catch the next pass. Do this for about 5 minutes, or as long as it takes to warm up.

Variations

You can have as many lines as 7, but never an even number of lines (5 works the best).

Tips

REMEMBER!!! Make sure the players follow the ball, or they will take one to the head!
