I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching...

Donna, Coach

DESCRIPTION

3 Feeders, 3 defenders, 1 attacker, 1 ball. Attacker has to work her way through the defenders passing and receiving the ball from the feeders 6 times.

Defenders to mark in zones so as not to overload he attacker

Attackers should be demonstrating a variety of ways of getting free from the defenders i.e. roll, change of direction, dodge, feint dodge.

Add another attacker so that both players have to work together.

OFTEN USED WITH...

Pass chase:

2 groups of 4 with one ball in each group standing in two interlocking squares.

The idea of the practice is that the ball starts on opposite sides and both teams pass the ball in the same direction around their square.

The teams are competing to pass the ball around their team the quickest and overtake the ball from the other group.

Small games

Run vs pass game:

Two equal teams

The team on the outside have to run a relay around the outside of all the cones (each player runs around once).

Meanwhile the players in the middle have to pass the ball around the smaller square and see how many times they can pass the ball around their square in the time it takes the other team to all round the outside.

Swap teams.

Small games

10 passes to score:

1 team starts with the ball and tries and make 10 consecutive passes. The other team can send 1 or 2 players across to try and win the ball for their side.

If the other team wins possession back for their team the roles reverse in other area (10 passes scores a point.)
