The "T" Test
Coaching Points:
Ensure the players are thoroughly warmed-up and familiar with the test.
The player starts from cone "A", sprints forward to cone "B" and touches
the base of the cone with their hand.
The player
then shuffles left to cone "C" and touches the base of the cone (when
shuffling, the player must face front and not cross feet).
The player then shuffles to cone "D" and
touches the cone base with right hand before shuffling back to cone "B".
The player touches cone "B", then runs backward past the starting position
at cone "A", at which time the coach stops the clock. The test score is
the best of two trials.
Variation: No shuffling i.e. simply touch cone B and sprint to C,
D, B, then past A.
