Self Ball Drop Cross Catch Speed Drill

Hold a tennis ball in the extended lead jab hand at eye level, drop it, and fire the rear cross rapidly to snatch the ball out of mid-air before it touches the canvas.

Key points

  • Hold the lead hand extended at eye level with the ball held in fingertips
  • Release the ball without tossing it and instantly fire the rear straight punch
  • Snatch the ball in mid-air cleanly before it falls to the ground, alternating sides

Common mistakes

Dropping the rear hand low before punching rather than driving straight from the chin.
