Global - 3v3 Handball (10 mins)

Setup:

Two grids, each 15X10. Each grid has a 5 yard end zone at either end.

Each grid has 2 teams of 3 to 4 players each

Mini skills balls - size 1, if available, otherwise use size 4

Activity:

Players will only use their hands in this activity. The objective is for the team in possession to score by passing the ball to a player waiting in the end zone. The player in possession cannot move, but can pivot to shield and find a supporting player. If the ball is dropped, the opposing team gets possession of the ball.

Analytical - 3v1 Rondo (15 mins)

Organization:

- 2 grids, each 10 x 10 or larger to create success for the team in possession

- 12 players

- Divide the group into 3 equal teams

- Different coloured pinnies for each team

- One team in each grid with one team on outside of grid

Instructions:

The objective of this activity is to maintain possession for as long as possible.

To begin the teams in the playing area begin passing the ball, and on the second pass one defender from the outside runs into the grid to try to win the ball. For each successful 5 passes completed, the team in possession gets 1 point and the defender has to be replaced by another waiting outside. If the defending team wins the ball, the defender plays the ball to a team mate waiting on the outside and the defending team immediately takes the place of the team that lost possession. Play continues as set out with no stoppage. If the ball is kicked out by the defender, the team in possession keeps the ball. If the team in possession kicks the ball out of play, the defending team switches and takes possession.

Coaching Points:

- communication and eye contact

- angle of support

- distance of support

- have a game plan before receiving the pass

- supporting the ball carrier

- space and channel for support
