Choosing Sides - 5 players:

On receiving the ball from the feeder player 1 turns.

Players 2 and 3 should both make strong sideways movements in opposite directions, the defender can go either way.

Player 1 must try and pass to the unmarked player as quickly as possible.

Footwork

Reaction race and pass:

White player 1 initiates a move towards either ball (on cone). Red player 1 responds and tries to get the ball before white 1 . But whoever gets to the ball first throws to their team mate.

Defender must decide whether to

go for the ball and defend the throw if unsuccessful or
drop back and mark the receiver.

Decision making

Build Communication on Court:

Player 1 turns their back to players 2 and 3 and receives the ball from X.

On receiving the ball player 1 pivots.

Players 2 and 3 both make strong sideways movements, but only 1 of them calls for the ball. Player 1 passes to this player.

Decision making

Down the court with defenders.:

Position two lines of opposing players along the court in a straight line.

The GK faces the back wall, away from the court, throws the ball up in the air, rotates and releases to the next player. The next player must drive into space to receive the pass.

Place any number of static defenders dotted around the court (6/8/9 players) while performing the above drill.

Once the ball has reached the end of the court you can change the roles around and the static defenders now become the passing team and vice versa.
