Instructions

  1. 1Feeder rolls or throws balls low, just above ground level.
  2. 2Drop the whole body down behind the ball rather than stabbing down with the gloves.
  3. 3Get the gloves under the flight of the ball with fingers pointing down.
  4. 4Collapse in a controlled way so the body can still block a rebound.

Common mistake

Bending only at the waist and missing chances that bounce awkwardly.
