• 4 hurdles against each other in a 4 side.
  • Jump with two legs over the first hurdle.
  • Jump left over the hurdle and jump back.
  • Jump straight forward over the hurdle and back again.
  • Jump right over the hurdle, turn right and make a sprint to the pawn.
  • We do this 8 times.
• 10 hoops spread over the ground.
  • You jump alternately with your left and right leg into a hoop and stay on that one leg for 3 counts.
  • Your face is always facing the same direction.
  • After the last hoop you sprint to the pawn.
  • We do this 8 times.
• 6 cones next to each other with 50 cm distance between them (when this group is ready, parts 4 and 5 stop).
  • You step over the pawn in the space between first your right foot and then your left foot. (keep your back straight)
  • This way you step over all 6 cones.
  • Then you sprint to the pawn.
  • The next round you face the other way and first you go over the pawn with your left foot and then with your right foot.
  • Do this 4 times right and 4 times left.
• Hat run. (brisk pace about 50%)
  • You start at a green hat.
  • At green you go forward.
  • At orange you go left.
  • At white you go backwards.
  • With blue you go to the right.
  • At every other colour you choose your own side.
• Pass the Frisbee and make sure it is caught.

• All players line up with their legs wide.
• The back player has a ball and throws the ball through the players' legs, the front in line tries to grab the ball as fast as possible before it crosses the line.
• Variation:
  • In 2 or more rows and which team has all the players in first.

• On the field, place x number of hats at random spots, half on his point.
• You play with 2 teams of 1 or more players.
• Party A puts the hats on the point party B puts them the other way around.
• After x minutes stop and count who has the most hats.

• 2 baskets opposite each other at about 10 meters.
• Start with 3 against 3 or 4 against 4.
• Depending on the numbers.
• Task is for the defenders.
• Try to intercept the ball.
• No counter play is allowed.
  • Swap when one of the teams has intercepted 5 times the ball.
  • Play on time and which team has the most interceptions.

Objective:

• Earn a point by catching the ball over the line.

Rules:

• A party starts from behind the line with the ball.
• Intercepted ball is ball first to your own line and then to the other side for a point.
• Balls out count.
• When a point is gained, the opponent gets the ball from there.

Points of attention:

• For defending.
• Play on the side by moving on one leg.
• Play at tempo.
• Watch each other and your opponents place.

• 1 attacker keeps shooting while keeping the balloon high (so it doesn't hit the ground)
• The catcher catches and throws the ball.

• Divide the team into equal groups of 3 at most
• As many poles as groups
• Everyone can defend everyone
• Can score on any pole

• Divide the team in groups of 2, max 3
• Each group starts on its own pole
• Per pole you score X number of goals
• Finished? Then move on to another pole (may be random, may be in order)
• Finally score X number of goals on your own pole.
• Who is the first to score on all the poles wins.

• Divide into groups of 2 or 3 players.
• Per group an X number of pawns in the middle. (for example 2)
• Players do an assignment.
• It doesn't matter what the task is, it can be a shot from 4 meters, it can be a penalty throw, etc.
• When there are X amount of goals, the group can take a pawn from the middle.
• No pawns left in the middle?
• Then you may take them to another group.
• The first group to get X number of pawns wins.
• This must be more than the number of pawns per group in the middle!
• (If each group has 2 pawns in the middle, the number of pawns to win must be 3 or more)

Objective:

• Which pair is first at x number of shots.

Rules:

• Each pair has 1 ball and takes turns shooting.
• All teams start shooting at the same time.
• Teams keep track of the number of goals they have scored.
• Each team makes the same prearranged shots.

Game:

• The game starts with each team having to score 2 goals.
• The first team to do so calls to the trainer.
• The coach stops the game.
• Everyone who has 2 goals at that moment, goes for the next round for 3 goals.
• All teams who have not scored 2 goals yet, start again with 2 goals.
• Now the teams have different goals.
• In the next round, each team must score one more goal than they scored in the previous round.
• This continues until one team has scored 10 goals.

• You have 2 teams and you have to play together to get the ball into the opponent's box.
• Your opponents can cover you but they can also intercept
• If this happens, the other team may attack and try to get the ball into the other team's box
