Drills - The Basics


Pivot and Throw

This drill combines the pivoting and throwing motions, and gets the players used to using their correct pivot foot. Throwing in pairs, have the thrower pivot across before throwing. Repeat 10 times on backhand and forehand sides. [2]

Piggy in the Middle

This drill practices banked throws. Split into groups of three. Have the thrower and receiver stand at cones 10m apart with the "piggy" in between them. The aim is to connect passes without the piggy getting the disc. The players are not allowed to move. The thrower must throw inside-out or outside-in throws by altering the outside angle of the disc. [2]

No Look Catch

Receiver runs away from the thrower, thrower hucks disc over receiver’s shoulder and floats it for a tasty catch. Player who just threw the disc runs at the new thrower and turns about 10 yards in front of him/her. New thrower throws a long pass over receiver’s shoulder then runs to the disc for another iteration. [1]
