Sand makes your legs stronger, improves foot speed, also helps balance and explosion. That’s like saying don’t do bench press and squats because you don’t do it on the field.
As a trainer Sand training helps balance, functional strength, power, explosiveness, it’s functional resistance that’s like saying running against resistance won’t help. Do your research mis informed breakdown. You trainer the footwork over and over in drills so that the necessary cuts become a habit and when the athlete needs one cut it’s not something that even needs to be thought about.
I disagree - Principle of specificity is what I go by. I've never seen sprinter train in the sand to get faster. Running against resistance won't help if you arent training fast-twitch muscles to fire explosively. Unless athletes are competing in sand, not as beneficial.
Footwork helps also with agility and being able to use less steps. Boxers never throw punches in ring like they hit speed bag why do they do it? Hand speed, quickness, reaction same principles.
Every cut is worked. Training to have quick feet is necessary and helps when needed.
Footwork and multiple moves, the cuts help. Drills improve agility and foot speed.
Agility training teaches moves that help muscle memory that comes helpful when playing.

Exactly, how much does a bench press and squat really help? Strongest guy in the weight room is not the fastest ever.
Hip turn you mean whip route.
Tennis ball out cut helps ball reaction he was a 7th grader.

Craft = means work several route breaking techniques in 9. It’s not meant for one route. Look up Jerry Juedy
You can do that but much more difficult to perfect each singular break.

You practice multiple cuts to make one great cut.
I disagree again, perfect practice makes perfect, so 10 sloppy cuts don't make one great cut, it just reinforces sloppy cuts.
