Basic (5 mins)

Team A and Team B play 3 vs 3 in square 1

The Teams (C + D) on the outside are only ball boys to start - they get play going again when a ball is kicked out of the square

When the coach blows a whistle, Teams A and B sprint to the other square where there will be a ball waiting

The first player into the square gets possession for their team.

Swap teams fairly regularly because of high workload.

Progression 1 (5 mins)

Add one of the outside players as a common player for both teams.

This will create an overload.

Common players do not sprint, they stay in their own square.

Back to 3 vs 3 in the square

Now all of the outside players are common players and can be used as wall passes.

Two touch maximum on the outside, try one-touch if good players.

Option (5 mins)

If players are cheating and are staying on the line nearest the other square waiting for the whistle...then split the squares into two Zones as shown in the right hand square (Zone 1 and Zone 2).

Once a player has made a pass in Zone 1, they have to move into Zone 2, and vice versa.

If they dont move zones, their team loses possession of the ball.
