Follow your ball - warm-up and intensity
Formation
- The players position themselves in a circle. Ideally, there are 6 to 8 players per circle. Each circle has only one ball.
- A player passes the ball to another player and follows the ball towards the player they passed to.
- The second player receives the ball and passes it to another player in the circle. They also follow the ball towards the player they have just passed to.
- This repeats continuously.
- Passes must be clear and accurate. The passes are played along the ground, keep the ball low!
- Just after the pass, players accelerate (short sprint).
- Players call out the name of the player they intend to pass to.
- All players stand constantly on their toes, not flat-footed, to improve reaction speed.
- You can make the game more challenging by applying one-touch play.
- You can play with two balls.
- Player 1, who has made the pass, must try to tag the receiving player (player 2) before they pass the ball to player 3.
