Work in pairs of 3. If a task fails, walk around the box and do the task again. Just until you finish.
Which group finishes first?
  • Take 10 through balls - score 9 times.
  • 10 shots from 5 meters - score 5x.
  • 10 shots from behind the basket at 4 meters - score 5x.
  • 10 penalty throws - 9x scoring.
The number of goals to score is fine for an A group and seniors. Adjust up or down if necessary.
  • The shooter plays the ball into the support.
  • The shooter receives the ball back after a short movement to the left or right.
  • The shooter shoots at goal.
  • The intercepted ball is immediately played back to the shooter.
  • The shooter plays to the passer again.
  • The shooter is released again in almost the same place as the first shot.
  • After scoring twice, change positions. Each player takes each position 3 times.
  • The exercise can also be played with 4-pairs.
  • In the catch the duel is between 2 catchers.
We play 4:4, with 3 attackers playing in the service of 1 striker.
  • The goal of the exercise is to free the striker in such a way that she will score. This can be done in many ways, but see what her defender's weakness is and play that out.
  • You can also take advantage of the attacker's real quality.
  • Shooter at 6 yards always free after a breakthrough. Coming from deep after a shot from another.
  • Each attacker gets a turn.
3/4 pairs at a basket
place the ball in to the basket and move to the left, get the ball back and shoot
then go back to the right and take a through ball.
score 10 distance shots from the left and 10 from the right.

You can also emphasize the through ball with this exercise with the assignment, score 20 through balls over the right and 20 over the left
Or shot at 1 and through ball at the other hat.
drawing shot from movement after passing in, then through ball
Player A cuts inside to take a through ball and Player B throws it to him/her. Player A catches his/her own ball and moves to Player B's position, etc.

To make it tougher, you can have the person indicating the ball catch it himself/herself.
