Run with the ball in two hands

U7 MINI-TAG | HANDLING 4

ACTIVITY: Catch and pass relay

1. Divide your players into teams of four. Put the teams into lines on one side of the area, each line about 3m apart. The player at the front of each line starts with a ball.
2. When you say “go”, the ball carrier runs to the other side of the area, turns and runs back, then stops about 1m from his team.
3. The ball carrier then passes to the player at the front of his line and runs to the back. The new ball carrier repeats.
4. Each player runs and passes twice. The first team back in their line and sitting down wins.

What you say
