1v1 with gates

Explanation:
  • Square is the playing field, marked out with pawns
  • Horizontal dotted lines represent mini-gallies
  • 2 teams of 3 to 4 players: set out several squares next to each other (also possible with 2 per team, but it is more fun with 2 or 4)
  • Set out 4 gates of pawns
  • Keep the playing field small so that you can act quickly.
Aim of the game:
  • Blue plays a tight ball to red
  • Red has to dribble through at least 2 gates and can score in 1 of the 2 goals.
  • The ball can be taken away so that blue can also score
  • When the ball is out both players join the back of the other row and the next 1v1 starts
Variations:
  • When blue takes the ball he must dribble through at least 1 gate to be allowed to score
    • same if ball is taken away again
  • Red must dribble through 3 or even all 4 gates
  • In 2 teams, the team that scores the most, wins.
    • Make sure teammates do not bump into each other
  • Everyone for himself
    • The one with the most points after a certain time or with a certain number of points wins
Focus points:
  • Good and tight 1st pass
  • Good take off from red:
    • forwards or sideways
    • But do not deadlock it because you need to act quickly
  • The man who passes the ball must apply pressure immediately so that this happens
  • The ball must always be in motion and may not lie still
