Purpose: To teach agility and reaction.

Procedure: Player crabs on all fours, then flips his body over rolling on his seat, and then continues to crab on all fours. Repeat, following direction from coach left and right, somersault, regain your feet, forearm lift man in front, and finally the player turns to meet the opponent coming from behind, this is a quick reaction move.

Coaching Points: Stress low center of gravity, quickness and operating from a good football position. Coach can use hand or oral signals for reactions.
