How To Play

(Watch video)

Variation:
With older or more experienced athletes you can have them compete against each other by having them work to get each of their team players through the ladder, taking it in turns. With first group to complete the task the winner. You can have athletes do different types of layups (runners, floaters, reverse etc.) and different crossovers (i.e. through legs, behind back etc). If the coach is in the ladder, maybe have the coach do a penalty if the team gets them through to the other side.
