Receive, Dribble and Pass (3 point)

DESCRIPTION

• Players are split into 3 groups (behind each of the outer orange cones)
• One player leads in to the green cone to receive the ball on the flat, dribbles to the inner orange cone, before passing anti-clockwise to the next green cone where a player has led to receieve the ball
• Can be conducted clockwise or anti-clockwise, but coachign points differ

COACHING POINTS

Anti-clockwise:

Allow the ball to come across the body to receive on the flat stick

When carrying the ball to the inner cone, there are a few options (focus on one at a time):

• Players can get their feet around the ball so they keep the ball on their flatstick before passing. If this is the case, make sure players stop applying pressure (propelling) to the ball with their stick and instead allow their feet to catch up and overtake the ball on the left side.
• Players can take the ball past the cone before dragging back and stepping through to pass the ball. If this is the case, players should focus on propping with their right (back) leg, executing a strong, fast drag backwards, pivoting on their right (back) leg, stepping towards the pass direction with their left leg and then executing a strong flat pass.

Clockwise:

Players should receive the ball on their flat stick and focus on carrying strongly to the inner cone. 

Once at the inner cone, players should keep the ball under control while stepping through at the angle of the pass before passing.

Other/Variations:

A drag between receiving and rounding the inner cone can be added for extra skill development/practice

Passess should start out flat and to the flatstick, but for added practice you can advacne to bouncy/raised passes or receiving on the reverse
