Organization:
Split group into pairs, one ball per player, area based on number of available players.
Instructions:
Players split into 'Runners' and 'Taggers'. Taggers have to chase partner/runner and tag them. When they do they swap roles. If player not tagged in 90 seconds swap anyway.
Coaching Points:
All players - keep ball close to foot
All players - use big toe, little toe, laces
All players but esp taggers - lift head when chasing runner
Runners - use space
Runners - change of speed/direction to escape tagger
Progressions/Regressions:
P - Introduce groups. Each player starts with the same partner but when a player is tagged they have to freeze and stand with their legs open. Taggers try unfreeze as many other taggers as they can once their partner is frozen.
P/R - Increase/decrease size of playing area.
