Keep Ball
Drill
Purpose:
To practice
basic possession and penetration.
Procedure:
Use an
area approximately 25x25 yards wide; six players are stationed
around the outside of the rectangle with another two positioned
inside. The six players who are not allowed inside the area interpass, while the two defenders who are not allowed outside
the area try to intercept the ball. Whichever player has a pass
intercepted should change places with one of the defenders. The
coach must insist that the ball stays on the move all the time
and never becomes stationary.
Development:
(a)
Players can be awarded points for maintaining possession of the
ball and extra points if they manage to execute a pass which
travels along the length of the rectangle and penetrates the two
defenders.
(b) The coach can impose conditions, such as
one-touch passing, passes below knee height, or sole control
before passing |
