Preview: These videos show players how to position in open spaces. We use poles positioned closely to each other to represent opponents and the team in possession must position between them in the best spaces possible.
We also have opponents we are playing against to position in between also to test players understanding of positioning off the ball.
Can start this without opposition, in other words, 2 or 3 teams each with a ball passing and moving using the poles only.
Then make it competitive.
