The session begins with a fun warm-up focusing on your players using and trialling a range of movement to get free from the taggers. This is a great warm-up to get your players focusing on the theme for the upcoming session. The session continues to provide a series of small group drills, allowing your players to practice getting free in small, tight areas. ?End zone game? allows your players to begin using the skills they have learned and apply it to a team situation.
