Ultimate: Fake Out!

Wow what a great website, I have found Sportplan an important tool...

Monique

DESCRIPTION

In pairs, players are encouraged to practice fakes and throws with a pivot
Ensure that players are pivoting on the correct leg
Try to make your fake look like your throw; can your partner tell whether you're about to throw or fake?

COACHING POINTS

Have the players look for certain traits of their partner that can show whether they are throwing or faking

OFTEN USED WITH...

Hide & Throw:

Form groups of three
One player stands in front of the thrower as the "screen"; the thrower then pivots out to the side so they can see the receiver
Screens should stand still with arms by their sides
Throw the disc.
The thrower then runs to the person who caught the disc, stands in front of them to be the "screen".
Repeat this process until everyone is comfortable with the reason for pivoting

Throwing Skills

Triangular Passing:

Split into groups of 3
One disc per group
Form a triangle, 5 metres from each athlete
Players must fake the pass anticlockwise to one partner, and then use the forehand throw to the other partner

Throwing Skills

Frisbee Tag:

Select around 10% of the players to be "taggers". The rest evade them.
The evaders are given 3 frisbees to carry between them
When players are tagged, they must stand still with their arms out to their sides
Players can be freed by catching a disc (if they don't have one), or by completing a pass (if they do have a disc)

Throwing Skills

Pitch Race:

Split into groups of 4 and spread out the players evenly across the width of the playing area (for example, 4 players 2m apart from each other forming a line 6m long)
Start with all discs on one side of the field. Teams pass the disc along the line to the far side, and back again.
The slowest team is eliminated and must sit down. Keep going until there is a winning team.
If a pass is not caught then it must be repeated
