Agility drills are not only a great way to improve athletes footwork, change of direction speed, and multi-directional movement, but also a way to improve body awareness. I use agility drills such as agility ladders, box drills, and wheel drills with all of my athletes ages 9 to 89 because they are functional exercises that will assist the athlete with whatever they are doing, whether it's on the court or in everyday life. Body awareness is an essential part of being a superior athlete, and also, preventing injuries.
