Description

Focus: Overhead flow drills

Consider: Overhead to space or to player, 5m receiving rule, movement off ball for receiver passing options

Technical points: overhead receive watch ball onto stick. Have stick receive at eye level if possible. Right hand slightly lower than normal on receive. 

Overhead passer: don't over force it, feel the ball on the stick as you flick, think of it as a push pass to the air
