Colour Catch with the Training Balls

Colour Catch with the Training Balls

A great exercise you can carry out with the Training Balls that not only promotes increased reaction time and co-ordination, but also trains at a glance colour recognition. This is particularly useful for motorsport where you often need to recognise light and flag colours at a moments notice using peripheral vision.

Using 3 different coloured balls (Red, Yellow and Green), carry out the following steps:

  1. The person catching stands with their back to the thrower.
  2. As the thrower throws the ball, he/she shouts out 'Right' or 'Left'
  3. The aim of the catcher is to turn the direction indicated and shout the colour of the ball out before they catch it.
  4. Adjust the distance and speed of the throws to increase or decrease difficulty.
