Okay for the next passing drill, we will do this warm up. It is for the behind the back pass but before you can do the behind the back pass this is a good warm up drill to practice. It is just taking the ball around your waist and you can go the opposite way if you would like, no right or left, it does not matter, clockwise or counter-clockwise, the quicker you get at it, the better you get at it the faster you should go. This is also helping with your ball handling and then take it lower and then take it around your knees and your ankles. Then work your way back up and do this as much as, as many times as possible until your arms get tired, until you get real good at it, to where you do not have to look at the ball. I will turn to the back so you can see what my hands are doing, just passing the ball to the opposite hand and this is all to help you on your behind the back passing, so when you start passing behind the back you will have a good range of motion with your arms and your body.
