Skill Training (20 mins)

* POSITIONING GAMES WITH TWO TOUCHES AS A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT (IE. FIRST TOUCH = CONTROL THE BALL, SECOND TOUCH = PAS STHE BALL).

* DISALLOWING A DIRECT PASS FORCES THE PLAYERS TO HAVE A GOOD FIRST TOUCH IN ORDER TO MOVE THE BALL AWAY FROM THE DEFENDER(S) AND KEEP POSSESSION.

* WHICH POSITIONING GAME TO USE DEPENDS ON THE LEVEL OF THE PLAYERS AND RANGES FROM 4 V 1(EASIEST), 3 V 1, 5 V 2 AND 4 V 2 (MOST DIFFICULT).

* THE GRID SIZE ALSO DEPENDS ON THE LEVEL AND CAPABILTIES OF THE PLAYERS WITH 15M X 15M AS A STARTING POINT (15M X 20M FOR THE 5 V 2).

* THE COACH CAN MAKE THE PRACTICE MORE CHALLENGING FOR THE PLAYERS BY SIMPLY DECREASING THE SPACE OR EASIER BY MAKING THE GRIDS BIGGER.
