This next drill will seem disorganized at first
but once the players get what is going on it is a
fast paced, fun, and very tiring! Refer to the
written version to follow along with the drill.
The sequence is as follows SHOOTER-PRESSURE-RETRI
EVE BALL-BACK OF LINE

RAPID FIRE(PAGE 13)

previous shooter touches a cone and runs back to

No shots should be blocked. The person is used
to add pressure for the shooter, not to block
shots.
The players must react as soon as they release
the shot. They must run to one of the outside
conesnot admire their shot!
The next shooter in line must prepare to shoot as
soon as the shooter in front has taken the shot.
The players should try to shoot away from the
cone that the previous shooter is running too.
Each player only pressures one shot and then runs
to retrieve a ball and returns to the end of the
line. You may have to reset the drill if the
players are missing the net a lot and are not
getting back in line quickly enough.
