RUNNING WITH THE BALL
| Players should
learn first to run with the ball keeping it under tight
control - this can be done in various ways e.g.
Practice 1
Diagram 1
|
(1) Player x sets off from point (B) to run round the four
sides turning quickly at points (A), (D) and (C) and back
to point (B).
(2) Player Y at the same time sets off from point (D) and
runs to point (C) who he cuts back (left) across the diagonal
to point (A).
VARIOUS PLAYERS
CAN BE USED (INTERMITENTLY) and each one can vary their
running route either round or across the rectangle.
COACHES INSISITING THE BALL IS ALWAYS
UNDER CONTROL. WHEN PLAYERS START AND FINISH THE EXERCISE
Practice 2
4 players, 1 ball; jog around the field,
passing between each other - each player no nearer than 5
metres from the next player (as in diagram 2). Players jogging
forward all the time while passing
Diagram 2
(A) starts passing to (B), on to (C) and
back to (D) (they can pass in any order they wish) but when
the ball returns to (A) he sprints forward around 15 metres
with the ball before putting the sole of his boot on the ball
stopping it dead.
It is then up to the other 3 players (B), (C) and (D) to
sprint forward with the practice, and one of them picks up
the ball, and so the practice continues; (A) joining in, with
another player this time making the.
Practice 3
3 players, 1 ball
(A) and (C) stand together - (B) 20 metres away
 (A)
passes to (B) then sprints after the ball to take up the position
(B).
On receiving the ball (B) passes back to (C), running after
his pass, then (C) passes to (A) and so the practice continues.
GOOD SHARP PASSING AND MOVEMENT
IS REQUIRED
