Moving Target
Moving Target
Set Up:
There are 9-12 players set up inside the grid, starting at the corners. Two balls are used during the drill. To begin the drill, Player 1 dribbles halfway across the grid and passes square to Player 2, running out of the corner diagonally across from him. At the same time, Players 3 and 4 run the same pattern from the other two corners. After passing or receiving, the players run to the next corner. The direction of play changes after 2-3 minutes.
Coaching Points:
1. Move the ball at game speed—dribble at full speed and strike game speed passes.
2. Look up and check for the target one last time before you strike the pass.
3. The receiver should start his run just as the passer makes his first touch.
Progressions:
1. Use two groups, moving in opposite directions.
