Pass and switch positions:

The player without the ball (player 2) runs towards the opposite cone and communicates to their partner that they are ready to receive the ball.

After making the straight pass player 1 runs to the opposite cone to receive a square pass from player 2.

Player 2 must adjust their body and footwork in order to receive the ball.

Passing & Receiving
Kabadi | Possession

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
