FootBall Drills

Killer Speed Drills Football is Known For - High Knees, Jumping and Other Drills

Friday, December 31, 2010

Football drills are known to be killer, but they really work to get players in shape in a short amount of time. By performing high knees, speed ladders, and other sprint drills players can increase speed and endurance for the game. Another benefit of these drills is increased agility; an imperative skill in a sport where players switch direction often and swiftly. Here are a few speed and agility drill ideas to get the team started:

Speed Ladder:

Foot Ball Drills

Speed ladders are great for football players because they create players that are fast and coordinated. There are many drills that can be done on speed ladders. To set them up, lay a ladder (or two, or three, or four) on the grass and line up the players. They each sprint 20 yards to the ladders, then get through the ladder in one of many ways. Players can do high-knee running, side steps weaving through the ladder, or bounding from one section to the next.

Tire Sprints:

High Knees are most commonly done not through ladders but through tires. In this drill players navigate their way through two alternating rows of tires as quickly as they can. At first players will be slow as they are concentrating on where their feet land, but as they get more confident in where their feet need to be they will speed up.

Track Training:

Another great way to gain speed is sprinting on a track. Have the team sprint 100 yards then tap the track and reverse direction.
