Open and Closed Receptions (prac test)

Great site. An absolute must for coaches who are willing to change...
Ignatius

DESCRIPTION

Receivng drill allows you manipulate the central cones to change the recieve.

Set: 

As show in the diagram (closed receive), the distance between the two outer cones can be at your discretion. Recommended would be 30 yards with two cones crating a "defender" at 15 yds. Open receive setp is the same as closed- the run is different. Practice each receive for 5 minutes- or select one (open or closed) and train for 10-15 mins

 

Instuctions:

2 Players at each outer cone. Player blue F Moves toward the centre cone, recieves the ball from blue A. Depending on the recieve being trained, player blue F passes to red F and returns to opposite cone on the other side.  Then player blue A makes their way to the centre cone to receive the ball from red F, the exerices continues in this fashion

COACHING POINTS

Add different variations:

1. Closed receive with an arc to the right or left

2. Open receive, receving o the right (forheand) and left (reverse stick)

3. Open receive with a lift (angling the stick to create a ramp for the ball)

 

Focus on executing the receive technique . 

Meet the ball as it arrivesat the cones- timing of the pass
