Bench Ball (15 mins)

Bench Ball (8v8)

6v6 in playing area with goalscorers for each team in each End Zone

Teams score by passing the ball to their Goalscorer in the End Zone

When a team scores, the End Zone player who receives the pass is released from the goals and the team turns and attacks in the other direction. The player who releases the End Zone player takes their place

Change It: Each player must get a touch on the ball before they can score in the End Zone

Change It: Players may only use push passes and if they sweep/hit then they lose possession

Change It: If a player gets hit on the feet, they have to replace the End Zone player immediately

Change It: Players may only play on their forehand and lose the ball if they try to pass or receive on their reverse (unless emergency receive)
