Watching is important


watching-is-important-1


  • The purpose of the exercise is twofold:
    • the defender must learn to "read" where the attacker is going to hit
    • and the attacker has to see where the defence stands before hitting.
  • We work with two regular playmakers, on both sides of the field a row of attackers on the left-for position.
  • And two defenders, who may choose where they position themselves on the field.
  • A defender has to defend the attack 10 times, preferably a nice pass, but touching is enough.
  • If the attacker hits the net or leaves the field, that also counts.
  • And the attackers may only smash, no prick balls!
  • After the attack, the attacker retrieves the ball and joins the other line.
  • When the defender has defended a ball 7 times, he changes with an attacker.
  • If there are less players, the exercise can also be done, but then on one side.
  • The attacker retrieves the ball and then joins the same line.
  • The blocking player joins in and indicates where he is going to block and the mid-back goes to his place.
