New ball, new task

Organisation

Three against three, two mini-goals. The coach stands outside with spare balls. Only one ball is active at a time.

Execution

Play free 3v3. After a goal or out-of-bounds the coach calls stop, waits until the old ball is still and outside, then feeds the team entitled to restart. That team attacks the opposite goal from the previous phase. Rest after 60 seconds and start another round.

Coaching

• Find the new ball first, then the target direction.
• One player offers depth, another stays underneath.
• Do not restart while the old ball remains active.

Easier

Ask players to point at their target before the new feed.

Harder

Vary the safe feeding position without naming a fixed receiver.

What to observe

Count restarts with two immediate support options and the correct target direction.

Equipment

Sticks, one active ball, spare balls outside the area and cones; mini-goals where drawn. Dimensions and duration are adaptable starting proposals.
