• Groin stretch

Everyone on a ball!  Plenty of balls to go around.  (exercises with ball at feet)

Speed Square – cones setup at each corner of a 15ft square. Bursts of speed in-between cones concentrating on cutting quick. Alternated exercises as we rounded the corners. Each PAX rounded the square 7 times.  (Total time in the square is 11 for 11 Seasons of Chattanooga Football Club!!)

• Forward sprints

• Passing sprint drill – PAX line up behind cone. The PAX next inline calls a cone (left,right,center), passes the ball there. PAX in front sprints to retrieve the ball and brings back. Each PAX goes 6 times.

Agility Ladder – PAX lined up in single-file line at one end of ladder and proceeded through the rungs with a certain exercise. FAST feet! (Ladder was a little small, may have been intended for kids)

• Both feet in!
• Step-out
• Step-over

Hula Hoops – PAX paired up. 1 ball between each pair. 1 PAX had to shield other from the ball while keeping it at their feet. We tried to keep inside a hula hoop, but that got a little dangerous. Trip hazard! Everyone loved the FULL-CONTACT! PAX switched who was on the ball as the other was able to get the ball away.
