Kabadi:

Set up with two teams, each team having their own area in which they keep possession by passing the ball around.

The other team can send one player across to try and win the ball for their side. If they manage to win possession the roles reverse and the other team passes the ball inside their own area.

The winning team is the first team to put 10 passes together without losing the ball.

Possession

4 v 2 in area:

Players are trying to keep possession of the ball for as long as possible. Players inside the area can use the two players on the outside of the grid to help them keep the ball.

Warm-up Games

Conditioned game - 2 Jokers outside:

In the grid play a 5 vs 5 or 4 vs 4 possession hockey game.

There a two jokers stood at either end of the area. These two players may receive the ball from either team and are stood in the scoring zone.

The aim is to play possession hockey and use the two Jokers. Everytime the team in possession passes the ball to a joker and receives a pass back they score a point.

The first team to score 5 consecutive points is the winner.

Scoring on the break

Catch a Stick:

3 v 1 - players with one ball between them. The players in possession have to pass the ball to each other while one player (white 1) attempts to catch the player in possession of the ball. On doing so, the player caught becomes the catcher.
