Wall Ball Drills
All drills must be performed with BOTH HANDS.
Any wall will work. Preferably a smooth hard wall at least ten feet high is best. NOT the walls to the gym lobby!
Use your gloves when performing this routine.
Stand at least (five) 5-yards from the wall.
Perform the routine 4 to 5 times a week and you will improve a great deal in a very short period of time. This routine should be performed routinely during the season. During the off season perform this routine periodically to keep your skills sharp.
