Side/backline throw in
Place 6 different coloured cones in different places on the side and back lines to signal start position of the throw in.
Coach calls out a colour and one of the attackers runs to pick up the ball from this cone.
Play until each ball next to the cones has been used (6 times).
1 point if the attackers get the ball to half way
(You can give them the option to get to goal if you want, which would be worth 2 points, but having a full court of players could leave the players at the other end being less active).
You can also give the defenders a point for successful intercepting
Start off with 1 defender who can choose to mark either player.
Then add in a second defender to make it more difficult for the attackers.

The short pass is being penalised more consistently in 2026. Here's how to train proper passing technique and eliminate hand-offs under pressure.
No more 50/50 toss-ups. When simultaneous infringements occur, possession now goes to the team that last had the ball. Here's what it means for your coaching.
