Shuttle Runs

  • Age U14 - U19
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players

Setup

Set up several distance markers with cones on the field. Form groups of 4. Each group gets a medicine ball.

Procedure

On the coach's command, the first player of each group sprints with the medicine ball in hand to the 20-metre mark and back. He hands the ball to the next player in his group, who also runs to the 20-metre mark and back, then passes the ball to player number 3. Once the last player has completed the distance, player 1 starts with the sprint to the 40-metre mark, and so on. A set ends when all players in a group have completed each distance once with the medicine ball. A total of 10-15 sets are performed consecutively.

Tip

Roll from the heel to the ball of the foot while running. Light, nimble footwork, no stomping or pounding.
