Do each exercise for 30 seconds:
- Slam the ball: Hit the ball hard to warm up the fingers
- Squeeze the Banana: We move the ball between the tips of the fingers and go up and down
- Around the World: Ball around head, waist and legs
- Around the legs: Around 1 leg -10 X- and then around other leg, changing direction
- Figure eight: We make a figure eight movement around and through the legs
- Flip: The legs are spread, we hold the ball between both hands behind the legs and flip the ball through the legs, catching it in front and now back to back
- Pretzel: Legs spread, we hold the ball between the legs, one hand in front and one in back we release the ball and change hands quickly. In the beginning you let the ball hit the ground then don't hit it anymore
- Ricochet: Legs spread apart, push the ball through the legs in front and pick it up behind the back with the other hand and bring it forward again
- Space catch: We throw the ball upwards and catch it behind the back, keep straight otherwise it won't work. First a little low and then higher and higher
- Speed drill: Legs are spread, we hold the ball with left hand in front and right hand behind, we drop the ball and change hands. Then we bring the ball in the left hand in front of the two legs to the starting position and so we gradually drive up the pace to get a rhythm
