Description
- This drill is a side-out game similar in some ways to Paradise.
- Play this game to 21 points.
- One side of the court is the ”Dog House”. The other side is the scoring side.
- If you are in the Dog House, you cannot score any points. You must win two points in a row to get out of the Dog House.
- The coach starts the drill by serving or giving a free ball to the scoring side. If the scoring side wins the first ball, that team gets one point and rotates off.
- If the scoring side loses the first ball the Dog House will get a free ball. If the Dog House wins this ball they go to the score side and the losing team comes into the Dog House.
- If the scoring side loses the first ball but wins the second ball, they rotate off but they do not get a point and the Dog House stays the same.
