1v1 & knock the ball

Possession

Create a square field and smaller grid (no-touch zone) in two width space and inside the space two balls placed on markers at opposite ends of the field. Yellow Team (Defenders): Starts with the ball on their side of the field. Red Team (Attackers): Positioned on the opposite side of the field. Place one ball on a marker at each end of the square grid, within the small grid. A Yellow defender starts by passing the ball to a Red attacker on the opposite side of the grid. The Red attacker receives the pass and dribbles quickly toward either ball placed on the markers and knock it off without stepping into the small grid around the ball. If the defender successfully clears the ball, the attacker must retrieve it and return to the side where they start. If the attacker knocks the ball, the defender will take the ball and place it on the marker and joins to their starting point without ball and attacker will takes the ball which he use to knock it off and goes back to the starting place. After all players have had a chance, Red becomes the defenders, and Yellow becomes the attackers. Key coaching points Attacking: Receiving, Scan, Dribbling, turns, shielding, speed,accelerate,accuracy. Defending skills: Block,Cover,tackle types,accelerate.
