DESCRIPTION

Players stand in a square by a cone each.

They pass the ball around either clock wise or anti clock wise.

After the player passes the ball they have to follow their pass touch the cone of the player they passed to and get back to their cone before receiving the next pass.

Warm up

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.

Passing

1 vs 1 race:

two lines of players opposite each other in 2 lines.

one of the teams has the ball and has to pass the ball along each player in the line.

The player in possession of the ball when the coach calls out go has to run around the cone at the end of the grid to try and run the full length of the grid to score a try. The player from the opposition in line with the player that is running can try to stop the player scoring by running around the cone and tagging the runner before they reach the line.
