Brain SKILLZ:
Step 1
Divide your students into lines
Step 2 – Setting Up the Drill:
Set up an agility ladder

The first student in line will jump into the first square and execute a left and right side kick.
He/ she will continue down the square and then proceed to the end of the line.
Continue until each student has at least two turns.
You can make it even more challenging by having the students start from the end of the ladder and jump backwards, which seems to really test their agility.
Step 4 – Takeaways:
Control your landing by being properly placed in the ladder
Perform kicks while maintaining your space in the ladder
Step 5
Make it a relay race to see which line can finish first.
