Think about the position of your upper body and head when you are hopping, if you are leaning too far forward you will find it difficult to hop backwards, and vice versa. If you lose control, take your time and get set again before you continue. Practice with your left and right foot.

Coaching Points
Place your middle three fingers in the centre of the cones and rest your thumb and pinky finger on the outer edge. As you lift the cones from by your knees to release the ball, try and rotate your pinky fingers up through the midline to thrust the ball up into the air. When catching; keep your eyes on the ball and be ready to move your body and hands to where the ball is going to land. Make a bowl out of the two cones under the ball as it falls and then close it back up to secure the ball once you have caught it.
