Week 8 practice plan

Maintaining possession, taking shots:

1. Passing, juggling, and throwing in: Warm up individually and in pairs. Review throw-ins individually.
2. Warm up and stretch: Jog forward, jog backward, jog touching thighs, jog touching ankles, 3 steps and jump, 3 steps and squat, step-over jog. Stretch.
3. Shield-steal
4. 4-corners passing game: Encourage holding the ball to close out a match--score a point by holding the ball for 3 seconds.
5. Triangle goal game: Win it! Turn and shoot! Maximum 2 touches.
6. 8v8: Special rule: anywhere near the 18, you get only 2 touches. Special rule: use cones from 4-corners passing game to set up "goals" for crossing passes; can't score unless it's on a crossing pass.
