COACH EXECUTION CARD

Practical on-court execution

Starting coaching cues to adapt for player level, squad size and readiness.

01 · Purpose

Technical / tactical target

Prepare lower-leg spring and knee tracking for short contacts.

02 · Setup

Court and equipment

Mark a flat non-slip lane; start without obstacles.

Use low hurdles and stable landings; remove hurdles if foot contact is poor.

03 · Execution

Progressive steps

  1. Rehearse quiet two-foot landing with knees following toes.
  2. Perform short low-amplitude ankle pulses with full balance.
  3. Add a single controlled lateral displacement and stable stop.
04 · Applied progression

From stationary position

Begin without movement. Confirm technique before introducing speed.

No separately verified photograph exists for this constraint. See the parent setup reference image.

Suggested dose

2–3 sets × 6–8 contacts with recovery.

Success criterion

Ankles absorb, knees do not collapse inward.

Safety and adaptation

Skip impact progressions when soreness or pain is present.
