OFTEN USED WITH...

Intercepting from behind:

Groups of three or fours one ball.
2 feeders and 2 defenders. feeders stand 4 to 6 metres apart defenders position themselves beside the feeders.
Player 1 and 2 pass the ball back and forth. White 1 must move to intercept the pass.
Progression:- Defence must move round feeders so eventually she is starting from behind her.

Interception

GK dancing:

3 Blue players pass ball to each other and attempt to pass the ball to a static player White 4 (varying types of passes). Defender Green 1 adjusts positioning according to the position of the ball and she attempts to intercept feed.

Progression:-

Attacker becomes a little more active.

Blue players make a smaller area so ball movement is quicker

Interception

1 vs 1 Defending in the Circle:

Slowly the two attackers pass the ball back and forth down the court towards the circle. The defender must move to the ball side of the player inside the circle.

The defender must remain on their toes and keep moving as the two attacking players can put the ball into the circle at any point.

Defence

Prevent the middle Pass:

Players work in groups of 5 - 3 passing players on the outside of the triangle, one attacking player in the middle and one defender who is marking the central player.

The defender has to prevent the attacker from getting free to receive a pass from the outside players.
