Here is a good warm-up drill.

[8-Ball Player]

I just ran this out today, which suprised me. Anyway this I think is a good drill to do before you start a game. The 2 balls in front of the side pockets are there just in case you mess up on your position play, its like 2 freebies.

The way I started is illistrated in the diagram below, would this be the right way to start this?

Maybe you should put the 9 where the 8 is. I assume you are playing eight ball here. The 9 in your diagram is hard to get shape on with all the solids. If it was me I would start with solids.

their just potting balls in any order, shoot without a miss. i could be wrong though. i used to do something similar but in rotation.
