4v4 Plus Four
4v4 Plus Four
Set Up:
Players are grouped in three teams of four. The Feeder begins play with a pass into one of the teams, and calls out the color of the defending team. The defending team attempts to gain possession of the ball whilst the two other teams combine to keep possession. The players should be encouraged to count out loud the number of consecutive passes that they make. The player that loses possession becomes a new defender along with his teammates. They must run around the Feeder before reentering play as the defending team.
Progressions:
• Prior to beginning to defend your team must place both knees on the ground
• Defend straight away.
Coaching Points:
1. Always look to support a teammate.
2. Possess or penetrate with the pass.
3. Choose the correct type of pass (short, long, driven, lofted)
