DESCRIPTION

Technical 1 – Catching the ball in flight

• Players to work in pairs initially (will up to 3s with progressions)

• Player with the ball throws the ball up over the top of player 2 so that player has to run back, track the ball and catch it.

Progression – Player with the ball throws up and both players jump and compete for it. Winner scores point and throws up next time.

Progression – Working in 3s now. Player throws ball up or rolls so that one of the players (nominated) aims to catch or secure. Third player provides a little pressure

Technical 2 – Securing the ball on the floor

Same setups essentially as the catching games but instead use ball along the floor instead of throwing (could use bouncing ball as progression)

• For third progression variation use the third player as a support player (rather than pressure). In this instance the throwing or rolling player provides the follow up pressure.

• The support player must secure the ball considering body position etc

Progression – Addition of players or delays to the 'pressure' player's arrival
