What the coach watches for

  • Stay low

    You stood up tall. Bend your knees and stay low so you can change direction fast.

  • Keep it low

    The ball came round high. Wrap it low around your back, near your hips.

  • Catch it on the other side

    Your other hand wasn't ready. Have it waiting to pick the ball up as it comes round.
