Try to intercept

Description

Players work in groups of 4.

The feeder stands with the ball in front of the 3 other players. The two receiving players stand 5 meters away from the feeder and 2 meters apart. The defending player is only a few steps behind the receivers.

As soon as the pass is made by the feeder the defender can make their move and try to intercept the ball before it reaches its intended target.

The receivers are not allowed to move towards the pass.

When the defender successfully intercepts the ball they can swap with the receiver who now becomes the defender.

Coaching Points

Space between the 2 receivers can be varied according to the ability of the players.
