Showing the attacker wide and transition to play forward

Description

In this session we are focusing on showing the attacker wide and transition to play forward. The drill begins with the coach throwing the ball in the air for the player to control and play back to the coach before closing down. The player looks to show the attacker outside and away from central areas. When the coach shouts ‘GO’ the player then reacts to move to the cone to receive the ball, open out and play into one of the goals. The players body shape and distances are coaching points that should be highlighted when jockeying. Each set should consist of 2 - 4 reps and should be completed at least two times per side.
