With a 3 at a post.

Player 1 stands under the post with ball.
Player 2 starts the exercise, after player 2 has done the exercise switches with the pointer.
Player 3 starts the exercise etc..

For this exercise we need 4 hats, a post, ball and the rope ladder.


  • Short passes through the rope ladder, then continue to the first hat.
  • The movement is to the left but the first 3 hops are with your right leg. the hop from hat 3 to 4 is landing on your left leg.
  • Then you move back with your left leg. the last hop is to land on the right leg then sprint to the pole for a through ball.
drawing Hop, run, finish.
The chaos game is fun for younger children, but can also be played with older ones.

  • In the chaos game, the idea is for each child to have a ball, and 3 to 4 poles (also depending on the number of players)
  • Line up in a row.
  • Each player starts at the same pole,
  • There is a countdown and then they all start shooting,
  • If they score, they move up one pole,
  • If they don't score, they stay at the post until they do.
  • You can agree in advance whether they have to pass each pole 1, 2 or 3 times depending on the level.
  • Variation: you can use pawns to mark a circle outside of which the players must shoot,
  • They may enter it only to catch the ball.
  • Materials below are for 4 people (hat = pawn)
  • Goal to practice the free ball under pressure with the give-up position on the side.
  • 3 people per post.
  • Emphasis should be on passing to the side and not under the post.
  • Make your own estimation when you switch.
