Conditioning... Texas Flags!!
Materials needed:
- 10 Cones
- Many lax players ready to run!
Goal:
Set up your cones in two parallel rows of five. Each cone in a row should be about 15 ft apart, while each row of cones should be about 50 ft apart (see picture). Instruct your team to line up in front of the first cone. Tell them that they should sprint each 50 ft stretch and slowly jog each 15 ft stretch. It's the job of the team to maintain the speed of the line; if the runner in front of you is running too slow, encourage them to pick up the pace. After running the flag once, the runner at the back is to move to the front and everybody else stays in the same order. Run the flag 50 times (or as many as you see fit). It's ok for players to rest and get water while they are waiting for other players to finish the flag, but if they sit out for an entire flag run then the entire team should run an additional flag.
