Watch as Coach Matt Darling explains, and players demonstrate this hitting drill that progresses from 2 steps into a full three-step approach plus arm swing. Coach emphasizes the importance of speed and wants players finishing the swing motion before they land. Players will focus on staying off the net and practice a soft landing every time.
