shadow your movements and try for a takeaway, if they
sees a legal check.

times. Cradle tightly, but not within your sphere. Pivot to
elude the defender.
3 Keep your eyes up. a coach stands by with a varying
number of fingers in the air. The ball carrier must call out
the number of fingers they see to prove they have their

 Coaches choose a random number of offensive and defensive players
to simulate a transition/unsettled situation (4 v 3, 3 v 3, 4 v 2, 3 v 5,
etc). They then have these players walk with their eyes closed until the
coach yells STOP! While the players remain standing with their eyes
closed, the coach rolls the ball out and yells “Ball down”! The players
can then open their eyes and play out the unsettled situation.

 Set up three cones on the end line in the alley of
the attack zone. The coach rolls the ball out, and
the player at each cone must go after the ground
ball, gain possession and throw it back to the
coach. They must stay in the alley (side-line to
restraining line), and if they don’t they lost the
ground ball. You can mix it up and have 2 on 1 and
3 on 2 ground balls. The concept is to get them to
stay in the close confines of the Alley. If you have
2 on 1 or 3 on 2 they must pass it to each man on
their team before they get it back to the coach.
You can also put the ball on the side line and have
them go after it and see what they do when the
ball is 6 inches from the line. Can incorporate a 2
nd
pass

 Set up 4 cones as shown in the diagram. At each cone
your players will perform either a dodge, switch, change
of direction, and finish with a shot on goal.
The concept of getting time and space to shoot is all
about changing direction and moving to get your hands
free to shoot at the goal. Have your players work on
powering off each move at the cone, and finish with a
moving shot at the end.
 
Have players try different dodges and fakes
