We planted balls at you back your feet as you're sweeping because you don't want someone knocking you all the time. So as you're sweeping you pass in same again, you transfer your weight going from going from a strong base to that you pass in is strong wait your arm going towards you you part your 10 and your legs coming through as well ready to get on the on your bike again to the next work. We do at the club social wrist strength. It's just spinning so you go from you. Then you go straight into your man wishes to 10 of each side just to warm your hands up. She's getting twos get into it and it's all about your wrist speed. So 10 that side turn that side not too far away. I want to see the rip on the ball. Okay. She said it so I want you to actually see a holding it there and you just all push same you hold it and push. Yeah, perfect. So in so don't actually move. I don't know the ball moving on it there and I want you to rip it the wrist. Yeah, it's just one year it up. Try and put that don't just do that. You got to move it but only swinging in a swing it out. Right next one. What your ball on your hip? I just want one hand passing. So it's all about see both of us are all about balls out that I'm going straight to the Target. Okay. So if both sides I'm going to the Target we're still warming up to 10 off each side there. Okay, so you put so see where you go there see where you went like that there that I wanted to finish only to finish pointing at your partner really finished pointing at your partner one hand. So you hold it and you hold it. Yep. Hold it like that and you're pushing it. Don't try and just transfer it. See that's how quickly that got to him. Phil's probably never done it before lychee. It's yeah, it's literally just instead of actually trying to spin it actually hold it like that. And as you come through you literally like passing it like that so you don't have to try and spinach is pushing it so I'll closer it gets soon. It's brilliant ball. Nice, boys. Let's see clapping as you pass the ball. So you you clapping you going straight through and you're pointing at your partner, okay to turn off each hand again, please Great Wall. It's all about your hips. So you got really movie hip to it. Good boy. Yeah lovely. Find any questions like Sam again now. So I'm going to you back on the ball on the hip go a bit further and I want you step in so when we step. So when we step we're here to the balls our backs all your weight on your back foot once you step in through you step in that's point in that your base now and then we're going through I want you to go through and you see how all my weights coming through my front foot. So I'm literally passing and I'm going to the next Rook which I want to go to so concentrate. It's not all about the passing of your hands good ball. It's also about your feet movement. So I want you in the position. I hold that of holding yourself here. Then we're stepping we're passing or my hips are coming through and it's actually my hips are bringing this foot forward. Okay, so make sure you look at that round. Can I get off each side? Don't rush it. Okay, if you got any questions, just let us know can Alex Glenny? - wait, you're gonna piss on you you're passing as you're passing you doing this. So you guys what happens to the ball? If you pass her heart and desire we'll go we'll go from there if you pass gym and you're hitting it through all your weights flying for that boy. It's a much quicker pasty 10. So I want everyone. I want to see the over balance of everyone going through the ball. I don't want people rocking back. Okay. Good. See you again. You're right back. lovely good boys, boys lovely passing lad about me to the floor now. So I'm going to pass to the floor. Where would you set up your going to pass in a game? Yeah, and we do have always a view like this way if you're passing to him. Yeah, and then show me movement. Yeah, it's pretty good example. So we go ball at the back of the foot. This is an Ideal World of getting there. We're down with planted the balls that you back your feet as you're sweeping because you don't want someone knocking you all the time. So as you're sweeping you pass in same again, you transfer your weight going from going from a strong base to that you pass in your strong wait your arm going towards you you part your 10 and your legs coming through as well ready to get on the on your bike again to the network. So if you do 10 on each side of that again, just take your time get your setup right as well, please so don't just stand up. Remember to get low good ball lovely ball. Good, bull. It's a great Bowl. You know, it's about either. So as you set up and then do step back, so that's your step there. So I would say What's the difference between that and that Miles wider moment. You're like this you're going to get any power. So you go in here big big bass and firing it into mu getting through whereas when you're passing you going. We need to really bring it through. Okay, look, he's got a wide base. It's coming hard. So wider base yet lovely then go through it. Go through it. You sure your wrist just make sure you really get through it. the ball great ball the boys. I'm just try and rest it really buying it through your both arms. It's not all wrist. Good boy, it's miles better that feeling better. Good ball, all this all the activities and sessions boys do follow the same themes as our Academy structure. So it gives them that real insight and an opportunity to get an inside view of what we do is a professional Club.
