view description
- Box Drill
  Set up four cones in the shape of a box.
  Have your players line up behind one of the cones.
  The objective is to have your players run from cone to cone and make hard cuts to the next cone.
  Have them yell "Stick it!" This will help them focus on making hard cuts.
  Make sure players sink their hips into each cut.
  You also can have your players make cuts at 45-degree angles.
  Incorporate a ball into this drill to help players improve their concentration.
  
  Coaching Tip:
  The louder the players yell "Stick it!" the more they will remember to do it during a real play.
