Transfer skill left to right
GOAL: " receiving while turning to right" with focus on body + pivot turn feet.
* see picture for positions
* rotation 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-1
* No 1 and No 5 start at same time, continous exercise
* No 1/5 dribble to opponent 2/6, then already do transfer skill "receiving turning to right". Then play to No 3/7. They also do this transfer skills and play to team mate on other side turf.
* No 4 /8 dribble around cone towards opponent etc.
* DEFENDER:is passive at first, but after 6 min he can try to get ball from No 1 /5
Variation
* both balls start at same time. Can one ball catch the other one in 2 min?
* appoint 2 defenders who defend for 1.5 min. Defenders against rest team. If defenders together get the ball 6 times from No 1/5 the team need to do 5 burpees. Not succesfull then defenders need to do the burpees (nb they can't put pressure on No 3/7 yet.
Receiving while turning to the right
feet towards attacking goal. Let ball get passed both feet to your right side
When ball is at your right side pull ball back around your right foot.
At same time while pulling ball around your right foot make a pivot turn to right to get your butt towards the opponent. Thus left foot moving, right foot stays the same
Sweep hit to other side (2 hands together- stick half circle over ground)
