Hands up / Hands Down:

Set up the players in a circle.

All players have their hands in the air (except the ball carrier), the ball carrier can pass to anyone in the circle as long as they are :-

Not directly next to them.

Still have their hands in the air.

Passing

Beat the defence:

Offence (blue), line out in one deep line.

Defence (red) - opposite in a straight line, slightly inside player you are marking.

Offence endeavour to pass ball along line.

Defence move up to stop them. Each defender goes up to tackle - if ball is passed THEN they work to protect inside shoulder of player on their outside.

Passing

Pass Invaders:

Split the team into two groups.

The players run to the cone and then pass the ball square before running on to the next cone and pass square. When the players reach the end they have to run back through the middle of the cones.

The practice keeps repeating.
