Speed and reaction with marker discs

CoachTruly

Description: The player stands in the middle of marker discs. The coach shouts a color and the player touches the marker disc with their foot as quickly as possible. After several colors have been called, the coach shouts "Run!", at which point the player runs at full speed to the cone positioned in front of them.
Coaching key points: Quick reaction. No guessing. The player must maintain good body posture to be able to move explosively in different directions.
Progression: How can you make direction changes as quickly and efficiently as possible?
