Movement and Catching Drills with Chinmoy Roy

Chinmoy Roy joins us for another masterclass this time in catching drills and movement on the field.

Set up

• Place a pole at the starting block. Place another pole at a distance of 20 metres which is the ending point.
• 5 metres from the starting pole place 5 bigger in diameter hoops. There is a distance of about one stride length between two hoops.
• The last bigger hoop is 10 metres from the starting pole.
• 5 metres from the last bigger hoop place 5 smaller in diameter hoops each at 6 inches away from another.
• The distance from last bigger hoop to ending pole is 10 metre.
• From the centre of the two different hoops coach stands at another pole at a distance of 10 metres with 10-12 soft balls.

Technical Cue

• During sideways move ensure a soft impact on grass.
• Stay on the ball of the feet.
• Knee and hip slightly flexed.
• Dive only if you can not reach with hands. Do not premeditate.
• Coach needs to feed the ball with great precision.

Reps and sets

• 5 times going and coming back is one set.
• After one set rest for 3-4 minutes. Repeat 2-3 sets
• Keep 3 men at the starting bock so that there is a rest and work ratio of 2:1
