- Players

Run toward a ball thrown high in front of you. Catch it with your arms locked above your forehead, without breaking stride. This is the “high point” in motion: in a game, almost no one jumps from a standing position.
Key points
- Your arms lock on contact; they don’t cushion.
- Do not shorten your stride in the last three meters.
- Three sets of six.
Common mistakes
- Slowing down to get ready for the jump.
- Catching the ball at face level instead of going up above it.
