4. Inside Out – Footwork & Ball Mastery
GAME ORGANISATION
- Half the group positioned inside the area
- Half positioned on the perimeter with a ball
- On command “go” players inside call for a pass from any perimeter player
‘Inside’ player receives the ball and dribbles to space to make a pass to another “outside” player
Aim is to receive, dribble and pass to every player involved in the practice
GAME ALTERATIONS
To make the game easier:
Allow the players to use only their stronger foot
To make the game more difficult:
Ask the “inside” players to perform a trick before passing the ball
Use weaker foot only
