Instructions

  1. 1Play a soft push shot into the gap with a fielder positioned to close in.
  2. 2Judge the fielder's angle and speed before committing to the call.
  3. 3Push off immediately on a positive call, running in a straight line.

What to focus on

Common mistake

Ball-watching after the shot instead of assessing the fielder immediately.
