Defending an opposition goal kick - Warm up (15 mins)

Crab game type game. To start the game, one player is a 'crab' and everyone else is a runner. The runners work as a team, and there are two balls between them all. The runners job is to make it to the other end of the grid and to make four passes between them for each ball (make them call out their number of passes to keep track- IN TOTAL 8 PASSES). The crab can only move side to side (not forward and back). If the crab tips a player, or wins the ball by tackling or intercepting a pass, the player who passed the ball or they tackle/tip becomes a crab as well (all crabs will go next to each other in the same line). Encourage crabs to block passing lanes so runners cant play through them.

Split evenly into a red team and blue team. One ball for everyone. One team starts with the ball and has to try keep possession. Other team can send in one player to defend. After the passing teams makes five passes, opposition can send in another defender and so on until the defenders win the ball. When the defenders win their team can start with the ball and the roles reverse. Encourage defenders to block passing lanes and focus on their body position and working to press as a unit.

7v7 game (or however many players are three). Ball always starts from the backline/goal kick, so ensure that each team has three in the back. If enough numbers, also ensure each team has three attackers (to practice pressing in real game scenario). Focus on the front line defending the goal kick. Players gain a point by scoring in the goal. Players gain two points by scoring in the goal after winning the ball off a goal kick.
