Home/Training Drills/Conditioning Drills/Cool-Down: Stretch and Pass
Teloframe OfficialReviewed by Teloframe

Cool-Down: Stretch and Pass

Lower the heart rate and lengthen the muscles. Pass gently to your partner, hold a light stretch between passes, and breathe slowly to finish the session calm and loose.

Setup & instructions

In pairs a few metres apart, roll a gentle pass to your partner then hold a light stretch (calf, quad, hamstring) before receiving the return. Keep the pace slow and the touch soft, and breathe steadily throughout. Rotate through the stretches over several passes to finish loose and calm.

Setup time: 1 min

Coaching focus

FROM SESSION PLAN

Coaching points

  • Slow and soft: this is recovery, keep it gentle
  • Hold each stretch lightly, do not bounce
  • Breathe steadily and let the heart rate come down
  • Keep the touch simple, a gentle roll to your partner
  • Stay relaxed and social, ease out of the session

Common mistakes

  • Drifting back up to training intensity
  • Bouncing the stretches instead of holding them
  • Hard passes that keep the heart rate up
  • Rushing the cool-down and skipping the breathing

Progressions & regressions

VARIATIONS

Progressions

  • Add a mobility movement between each pass
  • Lengthen the distance slightly for a gentle stretch to receive
  • Two-touch: control, stretch, then pass

Regressions

  • Shorten the distance so the pass is a simple roll
  • Stand and pass without the stretches at first
  • Roll the ball by hand for the lightest version
