PART TWO: DEVELOP TACKLING TECHNIQUE
What do I need to set up this pattern?
Multiple footballs.
What will the exercise layout look like?
See set up below.
How do I execute this exercise?
• Prior to conducting this game, players will
have practiced tackling in pairs from the
previous exercise.
• Set up two grids as shown. Size of grids and
distance between the grids depend on stage
of development of the players and the space
available.
•
Divide group
into teams. Teams should have
no more than 4 players.
•
Three
teams commence the game with two
teams on one grid and one in the other.
•
Team
A holds possession while Team B tries
to dispossess by conducting good tackling
techniques.
• When Team B dispossesses Team A, a
member of team B kicks the ball into the far
grid to Team C.
•
Team
A run over to the opposite grid and
now become the tacklers and must try and
dispossess Team C.
•
Same process
applies, when Team A
dispossess Team C, a member of Team A
kicks the ball back to the other grid occupied
by Team B.
•
Team
C run to the opposite grid to try and
dispossess Team B.
•
This activity continues
for a set amount of
time outlined by the coach i.e., 3 minutes.
•
If you have
a large number with limited
space, then 3 teams rest while 3 teams play.
