Interceptor 2

Very good interactive coaching drills.
Matt

DESCRIPTION

In a 15W x 20L grid, place two players on the each end line and two players in the middle of the grid in a two yard zone. The outside players will try to connect as many passes as they can. They will score a point for every pass completed that beats the defenders. The  interceptors work together to either intercept the pass or deflect the pass out of bounds. 3 Interceptions and the players rotate or 5 deflections and the players rotate. All players get to defend in the middle.

COACHING POINTS
