High Intensity drill
This a 6 vs 2 invasion game. Mark out three areas in a line (each box 15m x 25m) using cones (You can adjust the area based on the level of the players and if it is too easy for the Attackers or Defenders).
Start with 6 players in each of the two end areas and 4 in the middle area.
The aim of this drill is for the 6 players in each end to keep possession of the ball, with those in the middle taking turns to try and win the ball. Players in the end zone have 2 touches maximum or a point goes to the Defenders.
To start, a Feeder will throw the ball into one of the ends. Two Defenders will then move into the relevant end and chase down passes in an effort to win the ball back in a 6 vs 2 game.
The 6 players will be passing the ball amongst themselves. Once they have completed 6 successful passes then they can pass to the opposite end. When this happens, the players left in the middle will enter that end and do the same thing.
The Defenders work for 3 minutes then rotate the playing positions around.
Keep score of how many times they win the ball back in the 3 minutes.
The team that gets the least touches can do a forfeit- e.g high intensity run, or collecting kit in.
Defenders should touch the ball around 8-10 times in 3 minutes. If not then adapt the area size.
The Defenders should:
