My name is Alex; this is Andy. I’m from Missoula All-Maggots in Missoula, Montana. Visit our web site www.maggots.org. In this clip, we’re going to properly catch the ball off the kick. It’s important in this one to turn your body, if the kick is coming from this direction, you’re going to turn your body like this. You catch the ball coming down towards you. If you drop the ball or fumble a little bit it's not going to go forward it’s going to go backward. So you’re not knocking the ball and loosing possession. It’s also important here to turn your body like this so you give him your shoulder, your knee, your head, all the hard spots. Don’t give your stomach or your face. These guys will come tackle you right away. Put the ball in the air. Bringing it in like that, catching it down and dragging it to your hip and you are ready to run.
