Exercise 2 — Arm Swing Mirror
Stand still and practise the arm action: both arms back, both swing up, hitting elbow pulls back high, then swing through.
🔁 10 swings
🧢 Coach's Tip: Elbow high like you're pulling back a bow and arrow.
Exercise 3 — Standing Wall Spikes
Hold the ball in your non-hitting hand, toss it slightly up in front of your hitting shoulder and hit it down to the floor so it bounces into a wall.
🔁 12 hits
🧢 Coach's Tip: Snap your wrist so your fingers go over the top of the ball!
Exercise 4 — Safe Jump and Land
Do the full approach and jump straight up with arms swinging, then land softly on both feet with bent knees. No ball needed.
🔁 6 jumps, rest in between
🧢 Coach's Tip: Land quiet as a cat every time!
