One-handed catches on off-target balls. It’s not a show drill: it’s grip strength and peripheral vision work.

Key points

  • Place your palm behind the ball, with your fingers spread apart.
  • The wrist absorbs the impact; the elbow remains flexible.
  • Ten per hand.

Common mistakes

  • Going for the spectacular catch instead of a clean contact.
  • Reaching out with the arm fully locked.
