Speed and agility-drills? ANYONE?

[Coach JV]

Last week we timed our team running home-1st/home-2nd/1st to 2nd.
I learned that we should be renamed the "sloths' it is the slowest team
I have ever seen. Can my fellow members post drills we can use to help
increase team speed? As it stands I can remove the 'steal' sign from my list of signals.
The core of girls from a year ago are slow, the new girls are not fast!

Google PEP Santa Monica ACL program. It doubles IMO as a dynamic warmup/injury prevention and agility and speed workout. The idea is to work it into your everyday workouts to protect them from injuries, but your also IMO working the muscle groups that will help with agility and speed. After that it's a commitment to sprints.

LOL... I have 2 speedsters that I timed. Home to Home - 16.3 and 16.4... The 16.4 had actually gotten thrown out at first by the Centerfielder last year.
