A fun and compettitive way to practice switching the ball at speed.
Red (attacker) puts pressure on defenders to execute quick clean trapping and passing by racing their passes.
To include more players you could have the red players (attackers) run as a tag relay from cone to cone.
You could also have the reds (attackers) dribbling a ball instead of just running.
You could encourage vision by allowing the yellow players (defenders) to switch the direction of the ball at point 3 to make sure the red player (attacker) is aware of what is going on.
This can also be done in reverse with reds (attackers) running a tag relay from beginning to end.
If you are a mean coach like me the yellows have to do 5 push ups or 10 sec plank everytime they lose. (Make sure that it is a fair contest with regards to distances. Each "race" should be winnable by both teams.)
Attackers: How would you hold your stick? What would you be trying to achieve in a real game?
Defenders: Where do you want to be facing when you receive the ball? Which is the best pass to use?
