Organization
The ten players arrange themselves freely within one half of the field.
Description
- Players move freely around the half-court space, warming up autonomously for 3 minutes by performing gaits and low-intensity joint mobility exercises
- Some suggested exercises are:
- upper limb circles forward and backward
- upper limb thrusts
- torsions and tilts of the upper body
- sideways running
- running sideways while crossing legs
- skip
- running kickbacks
- lower limb openings, closings, and thrusts with both flexed knee and outstretched leg
Coaching Points
- Ask players to perform the various warm-up drills in an extensive and controlled manner
- Stimulate players, in the final phase of the drill, to vary their working angles as much as possible during changes of direction
