Combinations (15 mins)

Organisation - Blues start as the combination team, the 2 reds in the middle now act as defenders. Defenders are given 2 squares each, the front or the back squares. Rotate after 5 mins.

( Player who receives the ball would be the Playmaker in the game who works with one of the side players to get into the Magicman )

Blues - You can move anywhere looking to move and create space to get onto the ball, must combine in the middle.

- Receiving skills in tight areas

- Triggers of Movement

- Passing - Space or feet ?

Ind - Can you create space for a teammate with a run ?

Can your first touch take the def out of game ?

Can you receive to play forwards ?

Any player struggling will switch them and make them a outside player so they can watch the session and gain more confidence before going back in.
