With a 3 at a post.

Player 1 stands under the post with ball.
Player 2 starts the exercise, after player 2 has done the exercise switches with the pointer.
Player 3 starts the exercise etc..

For this exercise we need 4 hats, a post, ball and the rope ladder.


  • Short passes through the rope ladder, then continue to the first hat.
  • The movement is to the left but the first 3 hops are with your right leg. the hop from hat 3 to 4 is landing on your left leg.
  • Then you move back with your left leg. the last hop is to land on the right leg then sprint to the pole for a through ball.
drawing Hop, run, finish.
  • Goal to practice the free ball under pressure with the give-up position on the side.
  • 3 people per post.
  • Emphasis should be on passing to the side and not under the post.
  • Make your own estimation when you switch.
The goal is to score 125 times per team all together in the following 5 tasks. After each assignment there is an intermediate exercise for variety:

  • Assignment 1: Walk-through balls: score 30 x
    • Exercise 1: 20 sit-ups
  • Assignment 2: Front basket shots from movement: score 30 x. Change every 3 shots!
  • Intermediate assignment 2: 20 push-ups
  • Assignment 3: shots 6 meters sin around the basket with intermediate pass: score 30 x. Exchange after 2 shots So play in and get back.
    • Intermediate task 3: 30 squads
  • Assignment 4: penalty throws: 2
  • Intermediate task 4: 30 jumping jacks
  • Assignment 5: Back basket shots from movement: 25 . Rotate posts 180° if necessary. change every 3 shots.
This exercise is best performed with 12 people.
Divide the group into 4 triplets.
The groups will play 3-on-3 with the defending side being given a specific task:
  • Group 1: Defending behind with pressure within the 6 meter zone on the ladies;
  • Group 2: Forward defending;
  • Group 3: Give 100% Pressure on the gents and the ladies are going to try to steal balls;
  • Group 4: Gives 1 gentleman and 1 lady 100% pressure. The remaining team members should support both.
  • Players start on the back line in 1 row.
  • Each line is numbered from 1 to 7.
  • I call a number each time and they have to sprint to it.
  • Vary between forwards and backwards.
drawing Condition
  • 1 declarer throws the ball to the person in front of the basket
  • He then takes a shot
  • If the ball is caught under the basket, he goes inside and takes a through ball
  • Finally, he then takes a short chance
  • Exchange by.
    • The person who aimed goes to indicate.
    • The declarer closes in behind.
  • Point count:
    • Shot counts 2x
    • Walk through counts 1x
    • Short chance counts 1x
  • You can play this as follows e.g. who reaches the 20 first
  • Or 1 minute and then see who has the most points per basket
Explanation
  • Divide the group into pairs. Each pair has a ball and a basket with four hats.
  • Plot the field as shown in the drawing.
  • Player 1 starts at the hat in front of the basket, player 2 is the give-up.
  • Player 1 starts with a broadside and then tightly sets up for the through ball.
  • After the through ball, player 1 keeps moving close to the basket for a short chance.
  • Finally, player 1 makes a deep line for the shot.
  • After this, player 1 alternates with player 2.
To make it competitive, you can tie points to the different goals.
Through-ball and short chance count for 1, the distance shot for 2. Three chances hit in one turn gives 5 points. Not scoring is 1 point deduction. Who scores 25 points first and which post has both players with 25 points first.
drawing Warm-up with ball (trio)
Shooting game where they get to take a card when they have scored.

  • Each playing card shows a "color": clubs, spades, hearts or diamonds.
  • Each color represents an exercise:
    • Hearts: through-ball
    • Spades: penalty throw
    • Clubs: shot front side
    • Diamonds: shot back side
  • If they took a card, number is what the card indicates
    • For example, Hearts 4 = 4 through balls
  • Ace is 1 or 11 own choice
  • The first group with 50 points has won.
There are four hats in front of each basket.

  • Player 1 under the post with the ball
  • Player 2 stands at the first hat and receives the ball
  • Player 1 places the ball back and makes the running moves (See drawing) The player making the running moves taps the hats with his hand. The running motion is sideways, forwards and backwards
  • Upon returning to the first hat, the ball is played and shot, sideways movement and shot.
  • After 5 changes
