This is a One-hour game-based session plan. The purpose of the session is to set up opportunities for players to run with the ball in a purposeful manner.
Players would have to decide when, where, how, and why to run with the ball. The session starts with an arrival activity, so the players can get going while waiting for other arrivals and for coaches to set up the session.
The session includes a physical literacy warm-up and two games based on the session theme.
