2 Teams

drawing Ball possession
We play 3:3 where the emphasis is on communicating with each other attacking and defending, 
how are you going to stand and how are you going to run free for the other?
 
A,B,C belong together. The first ball goes to B from there the 3:3 starts.

The defenders are going to put pressure on the ball and don't want the attackers through the axis in any case so make sure it is closed. 
When they have conquered the ball, they score in the little goaltop at the side of the field.

drawing 3 against 3 over right
  • A starts with the ball, B comes offering forward and gets the ball from A on his forehand.
  • B takes the ball with a lift action over the pawns. When B has done this a 2:1 is played.
  • B and C belong together and play against the defender standing in the circle.
  • The defender tries to take the ball away and score in the goal on the side.
The exercise can be done on both sides, but please check with each other that we are not playing with 2 players in the circle.

drawing Lift receiving from the left
  • A starts with the ball and plays it wide to B.
  • When B has accepted the ball the tackle back may run.
  • We then play a 3:2.
For the defenders the goal is to close the axis and pass lines.
For the attackers the most important thing is speed and communication

  • We are going to play in a game form with where you are only going to approach your goal from 1 side.
  • Team blue wants to score on the goal that is on the side. They are only allowed to go there from their side of the circle.
  • Team red wants to score on the goal in the circle. They can only get there by going through the box at the back.
  • You may run WITHOUT ball through the others' line but the ball may NOT go through there.
