Practice Drills and Games
Incorporate competitions into your practices to keep the players sharp under pressure. Challenges involving offensive strategies, defensive strategies, dribbling, passing, possession, and shooting can easily be practiced as competitions, keeping the players sharp, challenged, and fit.
Use your imagination or use an established drill, either way you can incorporate the practice’s objectives into challenges. From basic skill competitions to game related competitions, most objectives can be made a competition!
Below are a few competitions that can be adjusted to fit your teams. Keep the name or change it to fit your liking, but teach your players the name, use the rules, their responsibilities, and the objectives. Always refer to the competition using the same catchy name and eventually, your players will know their responsibilities and the objectives simply by hearing the name of the game!
