4 teams have a 'Christmas stocking' (box 2m x 2m) each and they each start with 4-5 objects that are 'presents' (spare shoes, coloured cones, bibs etc).
They learn which objects belong to their team and each team puts all their objects in a ball bin (or coned area) in the middle.
Play starts, only one person from each team can run forward to collect an object from the middle at each time.
The other players can steal presents from other teams, but they have to put it back in the box in the middle.
Teams can try to defend their stocking.
Teams are aiming to fill their stocking again with the presents they had originally.
The coach can impose conditions on the game, such as you can only steal by sliding on your bum to the other teams' areas or you can only collect a present by piggyback.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
