SmartSpeed Drill – Grid

Overview:

A reactive and agility drill. You can run this drill for multiple athletes at once (up to 4) with a minimum of 3 Pro gates.  The more gates you have, the more athletes you can run.  

Athletes are assigned a colour and have to react to the colour that flashes. The drill can be either set for duration or a number of beam breaks.  There is no fixed end with this drill- only the max number of instances the athletes can break the gates based on the cue in the amount of time specified (duration) OR having your athlete break the gates a set amount of times as quickly as possible.

Minimum number of timing gates: 3

Suitable for SmartSpeed Pro

Drill options:

• Test Standard Breaks - a set number of beam breaks for the athlete to complete within the drill.
• Test Standard Duration - a set amount of time in which the athlete will respond to as many colour flash cues as they can.
• Colour Flash - Red, Green, Blue and All Colours (Red, Green, Blue)
