a few tricks I have are to always where safety googles while driving as this is needed on the actual field. Also play loud music to simulate the stress and communication obstacles that happen at competition. As far as creating drills goes I like to isolate specific motions and build up to a whole match simulation. So make a list of every single thing you will need to do in a match do them over and over and then start to link them together. I also believe that it is important to give drivers an opportunity to do both roles. This puts their job in a different context and often reveals inefficiencies and opportunities for improvement. I also like to practice what a drive team meeting will look like as this is an important skill to develop as well.
