Description:

Procedure: 

  1. Three marker cones are placed to form an "L." with cones at the corner and at each end, 5 yards apart (see diagram).
  2. The player starts by getting down in a three-point stance next to Cone 1.
  3. On the command 'Go', he runs to Cone 2, bends down and touches a line with his right hand.
  4. Then he turns and runs back to Cone 1, bends down and touches that line with his right hand.
  5. Then he runs back to Cone 2 and around the outside of it, weaves inside Cone 3, then around the outside of Cones 3 and 2 before finishing at Cone 1.
  6. The player must run forward while altering his running direction, as opposed to strictly stopping and starting in opposite directions. Each time they perform the 3-cone drill for a different side (e.g. first time they curve to the left, second time they curve to the right).

Scoring: The time to complete the test in seconds is recorded. The score is the best time of two trials.
