SET UP:
Using one half of the pitch with a goal at either end, also place a pole in each corner of the playing area. There are two teams of 8v8.
DESCRIPTION:
Normal game but when the coach shouts a number, that player must run around one of the poles, in the opposition’s half, before rejoining the game.
Normally I like to shout out two numbers, from the same team, to really emphasise the numerical advantage and create that desire for the team in possession to commit 100% in attacking quickly, before the opposition regain their players and organisation.
KEY DEVELOPING ASPECTS:
- Quick decision making
- Confidence to take risks
