Stretch A LOT. If your team practices anywhere where there’s a trampoline(or if you have one at your house, work them on the tramp. Or a springboard. Anything that can help you bounce basically.)

Stretch Stretch Stretch!! Every single day, multiple times a day!
It also helps immensely to practice in a trampoline so you can get some height. Just keep practicing!
