- 3 defenders with vests - 4 attackers.
- 4 markers on the ground - see drawing - approximate position attackers.
- The attackers try, through good interplay with the corner players, to get the ball on the ground in the 6 meters. Not throwing but laying down - 1 point.
- The defenders try to touch an attacker who has the ball - 1 point.
- Above all play each other freely, no passing moves and the like.
- Set up 4 benches 1.5 - 2 meters apart.
- All players a ball.
- Make a 3 pass: left-right jump and land on the bench.
- Do this toward each bench.
Warming up:
- Lunge pass.
- Calf raises, possibly on bench, sagging slightly.
- Jumping in place, landing softly on 2 legs, torso straight, knees out.
- Jumping walk on 1 leg, landing softly.
- Lunge stride.
Jump shot exercise:
- Place a marker at the jump spot.
- Player starts from corner, ball is passed with bounce by other player.
- Run up sharply to avoid giving defenders space.
- Lean sideways to prepare the turn.
- Aim in the left-right corner/high low.

- All players at the 6 meter with 1 ball each.
- All shoot until everyone has been:
- At the goalie.
- High. Changing corners.
- Low. Corners change.
- Half. The goalkeeper moves forward and back again.
Remember the goalie arc.
- Players line up in groups of 3.
- Player in the middle is the loafer and tries to intercept the ball.
- The other 2 may try to make space between the pawns for the pass.
Points of attention:
- Proper throwing technique.
- Hands ready to catch.
- No arc balls.
- Running free, making sure you respond to the loafer.
The exercise starts from player 1.
- Player 1 starts around toward player 3, receives the ball from player 2 and passes to player 3.
- Player 2 starts around toward player 4, receives the ball from player 3 and passes to player 4.
- Player 3 starts around toward player 1, receives the ball from player 4 and passes to player 1.
- Player 4 starts around towards player 2, receives the ball from player 3 and passes to player 2.
- etc.

- The trainer stands with ball in front of it.
- The players follow the trainer dribbling as a mirror image. If the trainer goes forward then they go backward, if the trainer goes left then they go right, and so on.
Variation:
- Trainer raises number of fingers and players call out how many; looking over the ball.
- Sit down while dribbling and stand up again.
- Lie down while dribbling and get up again.
- Turn ball around waist.
- Dribbling between the legs.
