We were finding it difficult play in to our strikers once we won the ball, and, if we did get it to them, we had difficulty creating opportunities to get to goal. This activity addressed that concern and improved their play. It is a good functional game for both sides of the ball because it also works on the 2 strikers defending play out of the back. A' keep the ball away from the three dark players and try to pass the ball over the line to the two light players in zone 'B'. If the dark team wins the ball, it is their turn to attack.
Light players play keep away from dark players.
They may only pass the ball back and forth over the line. Everyone must stay in his or her zones. Same game as above, but one player can 'move up' to support when ball played in. Same as above, but the two players in zone 'B' must combine before they may pass to a different player. Play to goal.
