Circle game 5v3

Stick and ball warm up

Players on circle edge try to score through defenders square inside circle

May pass ball around the outside of the circle to try move defenders

No tackling

Once Circle team score 3 goals, change defenders

ADVANCE: Circle players score by driving into square inside circle

Defending players may tackle and if they win the ball, they "imprison" the attacker by driving outside the circle. The attacker then becomes the defender.

3 Teams with one team as neutral wall-pass players on outside of pitch

If odd numbers, nominate a Joker player who plays for the team in possession and cannot tackle

Players may shoot in either goal but defending team has to pass the ball first or change goals if the GK makes a save and the defender picks it up (they cannot shoot off a rebound)

Players must use their outlet players to change angle of attack, create overload etc

Outlet players may not tackle anyone on the pitch

Game 4: 4v4 outlet

4v4 Goal scoring

3 Teams - 2 in the D and one outside in the 25

25 Team transfers ball until they find a free player leading toward the ball or a crash ball into D for deflection (after ball has moved 5 in transition)

These players may move anywhere in the 25 with or without ball but may not cross passed the 5m circle

Attacking team may use outlet players if they cannot move the ball forward (make it harder that they cannot use the outlet players once the ball goes into the D)

FOCUS on players getting into scoring positions: deflections / rebounds / crosses

If defending team win the ball they pass to the team players outside the 5m line and become the attacking team
