How to run the test
- Mark two lines 15 m apart.
- On the beeps run 3 × 15 m (out, back, out), then rest 10 s behind the line.
- After the 9th run, and then after every 8 runs, the rest is 30 s. The runs get faster as the test goes on.
- Tap a player who is late. Two misses in a row — they are out.
