Pyramids - 7s with a ball
- Set a line of cones 10, 12 or 15 yard out
- Split the players into two equal groups
- The first sprints (as fast as they can) to the cones and back
- Once they all arrive back to the start line, the second group of players runs up to the cones and back
- Once the second group all arrives back to the start line, the first group runs up and back 2x
- The series goes up to 7x and then the teams reverse
- 1x, 1x
- 2x, 2x
- 3x, 3x
- 4x, 4x
- 5x, 5x

5-10-15-20-25 Shuttles
Set markers (cones or flags) every five yards from a starting line to total 25 yards on the field.
Begin this shuttle run by sprinting to the first marker (5 yards) out and back. Then go from the start to the second cone and back, start to the third cone and back and so on. Try to plant and reaccelerate quicky at each successive marker. Complete all five markers in 35 to 50 seconds (35 for the older players, closer to 50 for the younger kids).
After each repetition give the players 60 seconds rest and then repeat. Do 6 to 10 sets.

1 Minute Sprint Shuttles
Use a designated sprint distance if 25 yards to run out and back continuously for 1 minute.
See how much distance the players can cover in one minute. After the first shuttle, set a standard for the team to meet. Try to eliminate pacing the run and instead have the players go as hard as they can for the full minute.
Have your fitter players set the pace and encourage the other players to do their best to keep up. Repeat the run after a three-minute rest.
Three to five repetitions in a session would be considered an advanced level.
