What Score is it Mrs. Wofl

Method:

  • Start off with ALL players dribbling around the area with a ball
  • Call numbers and players have to react; 1 = Toe taps, 2 = shuffle ball between feet, 3 = Drag back using studs, 4 = Leave ball and go to outside area, come back in and take different ball

  • Progress to 8 players with ball at end and 4 players without ball (Mrs. Wolf)
  • 1 x player calls out "What score is it Mrs. Wolf"
  • 1 x Wolf calls out a number. The players have to dribble until a different Wolf counts that number out loud. Then stop the ball with their studs
  • Eventually a wolf will call "It's full time", then players have to try dribble back to start and wolfs have to try get their ball off them
  • Wolfs become players and 4 x different players become wolfs

Coaching Points:

  • Good control of the ball using all parts (6 in total) of the foot
  • Keep head up so can see space, other players, wolf
  • Turn at speed once wolf shouts "It's full time"
  • Can player stop ball on command using studs
