Don?t let your team?s passes fall short again with this attacking passing session

Improve your team's set-piece play and their weaving and rolling technique with this week's fast passing movement session - to fluidly and speedily feed the ball into the circle!

Players stand in 2 lines, with a feeder in front of each line.

Players pass the ball out to their feeder and then swap sides (going in front or behind the other passing player) to receive the return pass from the other feeder.

Players receive the pass from the feeder and then pass to the next players for them to go again.

Whilst passing the ball to each other, three players run in a line across the width of court.

Players number themselves 1, 2 and 3 and pass in the following pattern:

1 passes to 2, 2 to 3 and 3 to 1...

One team runs clockwise round the inside of the circle with the other team running anti-clockwise around the outside of the circle.

In this example the defenders are red, and the attackers are red.

When the coach shouts 'Jailbreak' the players inside the inner circle try to 'escape' to outside the 10m x 10m square (yellow cones).

The inside team scores a point for each 'jailbreaker' - swap over. If you have an odd number of players give the defenders the extra man.

Whole group face the coach who then calls one of the following:

1. Here: Group run forwards.
2. There: Group run in the direction that the teacher is pointing.
3. Everywhere: group run anywhere, dodging everyone.
4. Nowhere: Group jump up, land and turn waiting for the next instruction.
