DESCRIPTION

YOUNGER GROUPS

This practice can be done as a physical literacy activity and can be adapted to a session where you can introduce a ball

As a physical literacy activity you can have the game as a simple tag game with the house in the middle. Players must go all of the way through the square to score a point

This can be done by changing the movements and only allowing the players to hop/skip/jump etc

A ball can then be added so each player now has to dribble through the area (house) with the ball and keep control of it as they are doing so in order to score a point without being tackled

A player can be added to the outside of the square who is also a tackler but can go anywhere on the pitch. This means the players don’t have the luxury of standing still under no opposition. If individuals are struggling, allow them to play without footballs, or take away the number of tacklers
