Station Layout and Set Up

According to the layout and available space, the six stations should
be set up similar to the below diagram. The teacher should
supervise from the outside of the stations enabling them to see all
stations at the same time and not limiting their vision by having
their back to athletes. Teacher/coach should aim to walk around the
perimeter and offer feedback and advice and reinforce key teaching
points.
