End zone – zone basics
Objective – learn to manage zones
GameFocusResetProgression
- 2 end zone receivers
- One of the teams passes to one of the players in the grid
- Teams are looking to play zonal defence.
- Can be triangle/square/diamond etc and can choose if they want to be aggressive or sit back.
- Players explore different shapes and discuss pros and cons of each they come up with
- Aim is for the Green team to get the ball to a “attacking receiver” as fast as possible (must make 1 pass) and vice versa.
- Turn and burn
After x balls swop the greens in
POINTS:
- 1 for a pass to the receivers
- Bonus point if they go to the receivers with no pressure from the defenders
- 1 for the defenders if they intercept a pass
ATTACKING focus
- ABT (Always Be Threatening)
- Play what you see
DEFENDING PRINCIPLE
- Delay
- Find your player
- If the ball goes off the side lines – play as per a normal game
- If the ball goes off the base lines – the coach feeds a ball restarts the other end
- Each team has fixed number of balls
- Time to score
- Goals
