ask ball / help side + why it's important to know this.
Ask if they know dangerous zone + why it's important to know this.
Give endgame task:
* 1 extra point for your team if it's crowed on ball side and you play or dribble to the help side
* 1 extra point if you show me that you know you are on dangerous zone (see coaching points)
Dangerous zone:
Motto: get the hell out of dangerous zone
* area from the 2 pc injecting strips in the circle all the way to the other circle.
* this area it's always crowed that if you eliminate you will loose the ball and also diagonal passes will be intercepted.
* You always want to get off dangerous zone by : square passing or dribbling (or even passing to guard).
Thus in game how do they show they are on dangerous zone:
* dribbling out of it (square)
* giving a pass out of it.
