This drill is useful for a guy getting a ground ball and dodging to get to open space. Teaches a kid how to read his defender to make the proper dodge.

• Divide kids into groups of 4
• Have them all line up with about 3 yards in between
• The first guy in line is to be about 5 yards away and receives a ground ball to from the 2nd guy in line
• The first guy scoops it up and zig zags through the remaining 3 defenders
• The defenders throw wrap, poke, lift, or high checks but only mimic checks
• Offensive guy must read the defender and make a dodge
• The 2nd guy inline is now the first he pops out and receives a pass from the guy who just had the ball
• When the new 1st guy has the ball he passes it to the new 2nd guy, and the 2nd guy rolls the new 1st guy the ball and the drill starts over
