Pitch set up and session plan

Main focus - carrying and dribbling the ball (second session)

Coaches:

  • U6 - Ed plus young leaders
  • U7 - Olly plus young leaders
  • U8 - Simon plus young leaders

Warm up in team areas by dribbling their ball around and avoiding other players (can also work on turning the stick over and hand speed). Check key points below. This will be followed by a rotation of three exercises. Coaches will remain with group and rotate around 10 min exercises.

  • Eggs in the basked (led by age group coach)
  • Sharks and fishes (led by age group coach)
  • Left to right drags/eliminations (led by Tom)

Rotation order:

  • U6 - Eggs in the basket - Left to right drags/eliminations - sharks and fishes
  • U7 - Sharks and fishes - eggs in the basket - left to right drags/eliminations
  • U8 - Left to right drags - sharks and fishes - eggs in the basket

General key points:

  • Low body position (toilet position)
  • Left hand at top (check grip with v pointing down the back shaft of the stick)
  • Left hand turns the stick and is tight.
  • Right hand half way down by end of grip (finger pointing down the back shaft of the stick)
  • Right hand lose and lets the stick spin
  • Stick in contact with the ball or at least close too as much as possible (like glue)
  • Carry the ball outside right foot at 2 o'clock on the clockface
