2.01 BREAKING FREE AND COLLECTIVE PLAY

(g)  PASSING MOVEMENTS IN FOUR SQUARES

Exercises in breaking free in groups of four

Each group gets a space of 20 x 20 metres to work in, divided into four equal squares. In each of these squares is a player with one ball per group.

A. The players play the ball to each other, in whichever order they prefer, staying in their own square. No balls on the floor! Before receiving a pass, the recipient should make a veering-off movement.

B. The ball is played around the division. Again a veering-off movement is required before receiving the ball, but this time the last movement should be in the direction of the player with the ball.

C. The ball is now played in the other direction and must be passed with the other hand.

D. As B, but now the veering-off movement is made away from the ball. Perform this with the ball rotating in both directions.

E. Each player now has a defender. The attackers must play the ball around without leaving their square. The defenders try to make receiving the ball difficult, but do not interfere with the pass. Change functions every two or three minutes.

F. As E, but now the defenders make every effort to intercept the ball.

G. As E, but now the attackers may only give the pass to players who veer off away from the ball.

H. As E, but the ball is only passed to attackers who veer off in the direction of the ball.

I. As E, but the attackers get a point if they can play ten passes without error. If the defenders intercept the ball, it is their turn.
