Focusing on principle of making the pitch big.
Small sided game
3 - 6 a side in a Long space
- 1/2 "magic" players who are always playing for the team that is attacking
- Use strips to divide pitch into thirds like netball
- Can have goals at the end or score by dribbling over the line would be preffered
- Pupils pick a third they would like to play in, roatate these after each game so they all play in different thirds
- When defending can only defend in your third. When attacking can play in your third and the one ahead. (may create confusion especially with younger years so can start with both attackers and defenders having to stay in their thirds). Magic players can play in all thirds
