Set Up:

  • Ten players are set up inside the square, three players start WITHOUT a ball.
  • The players without a ball try to steal a ball from an attacker. When an attacker loses their ball, they become a defender.
  • Balls kicked out of the circle remain with the attacker.
  • Play for 45 seconds and stop. The three players who don’t have a ball at the end have a goofy activity to do. Examples: donkey kicks, star jumps, etc

Coaching Points:

  • Patience as defender: Try and stay with an attacker and wait for them to take a poor touch before attempting a tackle.
  • Tackling technique: Don’t stab at ball. Step in along side of the ball and get weight behind your tackle.
