Donahue introduces and demonstrates a number of techniques

developed up to the highest level.
There are many benefits a player receives by juggling
the ball:
- Developing a better command of the ball by improving a players first touch
- Improved balance and coordination
- Learning to judge the flight of the ball
- Fun and high touch count
