Farmers and Foxes

Description:

The foxes (players) put bibs into the back of their shorts. The farmer (coach) runs around the area attempting to pull the bibs out. When a players bib is pulled out, he becomes a farmer too. Play until 1 fox is left. The players must remain within the confines of the area throughout the activity. Any player running outside the area, automatically becomes a farmer.

Progressions:
1. Make the farmer(s) dribble a soccer ball as he chases the foxes.
2. Make the foxes dribble a soccer ball as they are being chased.



Coaching Points:
  • Change speed and direction to avoid the farmer.
  • Don't stand still. Keep moving. Get ready to run.
  • Watch out for other farmers.
