Ground Balls Off the Wall

Setup

Stick, ball, wall, open ground in front of it

Steps

1. Stand 10 to 15 yards back from the wall.
2. Throw hard and low so the ball returns on the ground.
3. Run through the ball: bend your knees, stick low and nearly flat.
4. Scoop through, pull the stick up to your ear to protect it and take two hard steps.
5. Alternate hands every rep. 15 each side.

Coaching cues

• Toe to the ball, hands low
• Run through it, don't stop over it
• Protect the stick as soon as you have it

Level it up

Add a pass back to the wall immediately after the scoop.
