Snatch the ball out of the air and turn your chest during the flight to put your back to the defender. He has to go through your body to reach the ball, which no referee will let him get away with.

Key points

  • The twist begins when your hands touch the ball, not after the catch.
  • The ball ends up against the chest, on the side opposite the defender.
  • Four sets of five on each side.

Common mistakes

  • Turning before you have the ball, which makes you lose sight of it.
  • Landing facing the defender, which hands him the ball.
