Setup
Equipment: 1 ball per group.
Players: Two groups lining up facing each other.
Procedure
Exercise 1
- Within the group the ball is kept up in the air. Every player takes three touches and plays the ball back to the player opposite with the third touch.
- Whoever has played the ball joins the back of the group again.
- The aim is to keep the ball up for as long as possible and not let it drop to the ground.
- If a player makes a mistake or the ball drops to the ground, the team receives a penalty point. The first team to reach five penalty points loses. Three rounds are planned.
Exercise 2
- The relay competition is then contested as a heading game: within the group the ball is headed back and forth with one touch before joining the back of the queue again.
- Alternatively two headed touches are possible — control and return. The coach decides.
Tip
- Despite the competition, pay attention to high quality.
