Game Situations

On the coaches whistle A and B have to accelerate through the gate on the top of the circle and challenge for the stationery ball in the circle. Whoever receives the ball first must try and score past the keeper and challenging defender. A physical contest!
NB! Physical strength and use of the body to control space.

Drill Session 3 - Game Situations

On the coaches whistle player A sprints to collect the ball placed in between himself and player B. As A is about to pick up the ball player B then becomes the defender. There is a keeper waiting to meet player A on the top of the circle. Player A must try and out sprint B and then beat the advancing keeper and score past the keeper in the goals. If B tackles A or picks up rebounds he can score. Competitive environment. Out of 8 balls who scores more goals?
