“FAST FEET”
We use the following drill to teach our players how to develop fast feet.
The setup for this drill is as follows:
- Distance from start line to final hurdle is 15 yards
- The hurdles are 1-yard apart
- First 4 hurdles (2 on the left side, 2 on the right side) are 6 inches high
- Next 8 hurdles (4 on left, 4 on right) are 9 inches high
- Last hurdles (1 on left, 1 on right) are 12 inches high
The drill: Players run down the middle and alternate lifting legs over the hurdles.
Important notes: Every time the player goes from left side to right side and right side to left side, they are required to make a quick 2-step.
