Square Shifting Game

  • Organisation

    • Set up 16 cones to create 2 yellow squares and 2 red squares, vertically aligned with each other.
    • Form 2 teams.
    • Create teams of 5 players each.
  • Process

    One team plays to the red squares, while the other team plays to the yellow squares.

    A point is scored when a player is played into the square and passes the ball to a teammate outside the square (not the same player), without an opponent intercepting the ball.

    After scoring a point, the team must attempt to play to the other square.

    Two consecutive points without losing possession at the same square do not count.

  • Tip

    Coaching Points

    • Emphasize the importance of shifting play. Players should try to shift play until they can achieve numerical superiority at a square and score.
