Training on Tuesday 12 Feb

today got 14 people in attendance. we started out with some passing drills.

drill 1:

A---------------B



C---------------D

2 people at each cone ABCD. B pass to A, A layback to B (who had run about halfway towards A), B pass to C, C layback to A and so on. B is now at A, and A is now at C, and so on. we've done this drill before. it shall henceforth be known as the 4-man drill.

drill 2:

A-------B



C-------D

D pass to A, A pass to B, B pass to C, C pass to D. after passing, your new position is the cone you passed to.

drill 3:

C----------D


-----B


-----A-----E

A pass to B (but pass to space, so not directly at the cone), B layback to A, A pass direct to C, C layback to B, B pass to D (pass to space), D dribbles to E. then each player moves to the next successive cone, and so on.

drill 4:

same formation as drill 3, but this time, A pass to B (pass to space), B layback to A, A pass to C, C pass straight to D (pass to space), D dribble to E.
