Set Up:
- Ten players are set up in a 15 x 20 yard grid. The coach will select two players to be the Angry Birds with a ball.
- The rest of the players are Piggies and do not have a ball.
- The Angry Birds try to tag the Piggies by passing their ball to hit the Piggies below the knee.
- If a Piggy gets tagged they get a ball and join the Angry Birds.
- If a Piggy leaves the grid to escape an Angry Bird, they become an Angry Bird.
- Play until there are two players left as Piggies. They are the winners of the game, and become the Angry Birds for the next round.
Coaching Points:
- Show players how to use the inside of their foot to strike the ball.
- Stress the timing of pass. Can you pass to where the player is going, not where they were?
- Use peripheral vision while dribbling to see where you want to go next.
- Can the players dribble the ball to better set up their next pass?
