Description

Playing through the thirds

Objective - Improve Passing

Activity - Players are split up into 2 teams and 2 neutral players. In each thirds of the training area players are divided into small groups. 2 players from each team in the middle, 1 play from each team on the end and each natural player is placed on either end. The players then play a possession based game that emphasis dominating your space, playing through the thirds, and creating angles. A point is scored when players successfully link passes from All 3 thirds. Players are locked to their thrid and can not move into the other thrids (the ball does the work and forces the players to pass and maximize their space)

Set up - 14 cones, 4 bibs, as many balls as available, . Size of space 10 by 20 yards

Improve Passing - off ball movement, angles, play the way you face.

More Challenging - Players must pass in order from one third to another

 Less Challenging - players can move into and out of their spaces.

Key Terms - diagonal pass, check in & check out , threw ball, driven pass , reading the game and making a decision
