Tougher than it looks! 

try to get players to plant their feet, eyes up, and use their top hand while sliding their bottom hand up and down the shaft of their stick. I find this is hard for youth players. 

how the drill works

All you need is a broken stick or dangler. Stick handle up and down the shaft three times each way before taking a break. Repeat three times. Players forearms will burn!
