Elevate Your Endurance: St. John's Prep Eagles' S Player Drill
📍 St. John's Prep Eagles·Saturday, July 25, 2026·FridayNightPulse Insider
At St. John's Prep Eagles, our S players are working on a specific drill to build their endurance and agility. The 'Shuttle Sprint' drill involves setting up two cones 10 yards apart, with a third cone 5 yards beyond the second. Players start at the first cone, sprint to the second, then backpedal to the third, before sprinting back to the first. We're doing 3 sets of 5 reps, with a 30-second rest between sets. Coaching cues include 'explosive start,' 'quick change of direction,' and ' maintain speed through the backpedal.' This drill translates to game performance by improving our players' ability to quickly change direction and cover more ground on the field.
