How to run it
- 1
Coach hits / tosses / serves to the attacking side. Athletes experiment with tempo + spread when the pass allows it. Bad pass = run normal play. Run left-side and right-side attackers separately.
- 2
Coach emphasis: Keep the approach and arm speed consistent so the shot or swing stays game-like.
