Fitness Passing 1
OBJECTIVE:
Maintain basic passing skills under pressure.
EQUIPMENT:
Three balls.
GROUP SIZE:
Five.
AREA:
8m x 8m.
DRILL EXPLANATION:
- Players stand on four corners of grid with player A in the middle.
- Players B, C and D on three of the four corners have a ball while player E does not.
- Player A faces player C and as he/she runs toward C, he/she catches a pass from B and gives to E.
- When A is a couple of metres from C, C passes to A who immediately returns the ball, turns and runs back towards D, catch/passing from E to B.
- The exercise continues for a set time, a set number of loops, until the middle player drops the ball or reaches exhaustion.
COACHING POINTS:
• Ensure players don’t fall away from their pass.
• Encourage the players to work themselves hard.
VARIATIONS / PROGRESSION:
Add another runner so two passes are being performed in the middle of the grid.
