You can have a bit of fun with this.

Get the players to set up as in the drill below. Then after the kick they have to realign and attack back towards the defence.

This should be fun for the players and will get them used to quickly getting into the correct alignment to attack space.

If you brief the defence secretly you can get the attacking players to adjust to different defensive set ups.

I hope this helps you

Description:

One player kicks the ball to the 1 player left at the end of the grid as soon as the kick goes in the air the rest of the kicking team run to support the catcher to play a 5 v 4 against  the defence.

The defence can not start until the ball is caught.
