*Try to achieve approx 60/40 Split Feeders to Players or 1 more Feeder than Player*

The feeders circle around the players and feed the ball to foot, thigh or head. If the ball arrives at the head or foot then the players will play the back straight back. If it arrives at their thigh, then they must control the ball then feed it back. After passing back to the feeder, the player runs to another FREE feeder (players cannot go to next feeder!). Cycle players and feeders around after 1 minute as players will be running around.

Coaching points:

Look for space (available feeder)

Inside the foot pass

Gauge power on header
