I choose you - Block the tag!:

The white player starts the drill by pointing to the player they want to tag.

After having pointed the white player then proceeds to try and catch that player.

Meanwhile the other players have to try and prevent the white player from tagging their man by blocking their way towards the person they want to tag.

Meet the Pass:

Players stand a few steps behind their cone.

The first player with the ball in hand should step up to their cone and then aim their pass in front of their target recipient (pass to that player's cone).

As the pass is made in front of them players should be ready to move forwards to receive the ball and then pass it to another player as fast as possible (without losing control of the ball).
