For the first part of this drill put your team into 3s and give them one ball per group.
Staying inside the grid players must pass between themselves, never standing still, working their way all around the area.
Once your players have worked like this for a few minutes you can now add a tackling element into this drill.
Players must continue to work the ball around the grid, constantly moving but they must now also try to kick the other team's balls out of the area.
The last team in possession of their own ball is the winner.
