3 ball round the clock:

Setup: 4 players stand in a diamond with 3 balls. A 5th player stands in the middle.

To start the drill 1 of the outside players throw their ball to the player in the middle who has to return the ball the player who did not have a ball before the ball was thrown.

The middle player then rotates to receive the next ball and the drill continues in this way.

Throwing & Catching

All the Way Across the field:

Teams of 4 try and throw the ball across a pitch as quickly as possible, not missing any players out.

The first team to throw the ball 10 times across the pitch is the winner.

Throwing & Catching

Advanced catch ball rotation:

The 2nd player in the line throws a high ball over the head of the 1st player, for them to run onto and catch close to the bowling square.

Once they have caught the ball they should turn and throw to the fielding player at the 4th post.

The 4th post player then throws the ball to the new 2nd player in the line who then repeats the exercise.

Throwing & Catching

Catch the ball:

Ask the players to spread themselves and have 1 ball for the players to throw or roll the ball to each other.

The player in the middle has to try and catch the player in possession of the ball. or get to the ball before a player does if it is badly thrown.
