  • Put a tennis ball on chair 1 (this will be replenished), and put a bowl on chair 2.
  • The players work in pairs.
  • One player runs and the other fills up the tennis balls.
  • Collect in 9 minutes as many tennisballs as possible in the bin.
  • You are not allowed to throw and you have to run around the chairs.
  • Cover 5x the distance of 10 meters as fast as possible.
  • Put 2 cones/line at 10 meter distance.
  • The player runs between these cones 5x.
  • The pawn/line must be hit with the foot!

Exercises are performed 2x

  • Jog
  • Rotate your hip
  • Rotate hip
  • Zigzag partner (sideways around each other)
  • Air Duel (sideways up against each other)
  • High Knee Lift
  • Zigzag
  • Final sprint (2 pawns forwards, 1 pawn backwards)


After these exercises we will continue with shooting.

  • Two players per post.
  • 1 player in front of the basket at 7 meters.
  • there is a change of function when the shooter scores 2 times
  • The players walk from under a basket to the next basket on a whistle, whereby they change function when they miss a through ball or a shot.
  • Four players walk to the next basket at the same time.
  • Here we look who has scored the following goals first: Pay attention: whistle twice at the dodge ball:
  • 1 time at the start of the run (whistle softly) and once to indicate the evasion move (whistle loudly).

  • One shooter at 7 yards, one receiver under the basket.
  • The shooter shoots a distance shot and then exchanges with the receiver.
  • Each player scores twice and then the players walk hand in hand around the square of the baskets to the next basket, shoot again and exchange every goal.
  • The point is which pair returns first to the post where he or she started shooting, this pair has won the game.
  • Shooting from a nice distance.
  • 2 against 3 on 1 basket where when the trio scores, they can keep attacking and the defender changes with two other players when they let a goal through.
  • (Trainer always makes a pair and/or trio on the sideline).
  • A goal may only be scored by a shot and the goal may not be scored from closer than three metres.
  • Set up a square around the basket, in which no shots may be made.
  • Play 4 against 4 in which they must perform the above exercise 5 + 6, the defense may not predefend on the support there must be 1 shot allowed.
  • After 1 shot 4-0 and again. Change task after 1,5 min.
  • Poles in a square.
  • Under each pole stands a lady.
  • Two gentlemen are going to defend the other two gentlemen.
  • The attackers must try to take a through ball on any pole.
  • The defenders' task is to make it as difficult as possible for the attackers.
  • Goal: Learning to take a walkthrough ball with a defender.
  • In a game we are often hindered by the opponent when taking a walkthrough ball.
  • But in training you are usually not hindered, hence these exercises.
