1. Drill begins with a 5v5 towards main goal. 2. Once blue defenders win the ball, they travel towards one of the three gates. 3. If successful in qualifying through set of gates, blue then attacks towards the main goal. Yellow defends and tries to then travel towards the gate before being able to attack the main net.
1. Basically a half-court game but with three gates. 2. Can add more numbers if necessary. 3. Repeat down other side of 25 with remaining half of players (separate into two teams). = 2 different half-court games being played.
