How to do it?

• Starting point
• Goalie
• You are in the initial position but your hands are on your back – folded on your backbone
• Assistent
• Stands in front of you in a shoulder wide position
• Knees slightly bent
• Arms are outstreched in a shoulder wide position
• Each hand has one ball
• Exercise
• Focus both balls
• The assistant will suddenly release one ball – it is up to the assistant which ball he releases
• Once you recognize the falling ball, react and catch the falling ball
• As soon as you caught the ball, the assistant bends the knees further down to reduce the time to react
• If you did not catch the ball, the assistant does the opposite and goes a bit up to give you more time to react – this should not be your target ;-)

How to change the degree of difficulty:

• Assistance can increase the distance between his arms
