1.1 THROWING AND CATCHING
(h) IN GROUPS OF FOUR WITH A FIXED ASSIST PLAYER TO THE SIDE
Catching and throwing in groups of four, where the theme playing balls passed from the side, while in movement.
See diagram. Number 1 has the ball. Change functions every 1-2 minutes.
A. Number 1 passes to Number 4 and runs in a straight line towards Number 3. Be careful because beginners are inclined to run towards Number 4. Number 4 plays the ball back to Number 1 in a straight line in front of him/herself so that Number 1 receives the ball from the side. Number 1 passes the ball to Number 3, who repeats the exercise of Number 1 in the opposite direction.
Remind beginners that the assist must be given in front of the moving player.
B. The assist players roll the ball and the runners must scoop the ball up as quickly as possible before making the next pass.
C. The assist player gives a high pass so that the ball is caught in the air, to be played as quickly as possible after landing.
D. As C, but who can play the ball in the air, both catching and throwing?
