Set Up

Use cones or lines on the field, to create a circle. Put the players around the circle, with 1 ball in play. It starts with a player rolling the ball to a teammate, and then moving to open space in the circle. The player who scoops the ground ball, will look run, roll the ball to a new teammate, and then move into space. Continue this for 1-2 minutes

Coaching Points and Principles

  • Ground Balls – Accelerate through
  • Head UP! find a teammate to roll the ball to
  • Find Space – emphasize motion and finding space after you move the ball

Progressions

  • Use 2 balls, more reps
  • Have them pass, not ground ball
