Dribbling/Carrying

Elimination Entry

2v2 / 3v3 or expand out as required. Using the baseline pockets to eliminate defenders (aerials in tight spaces) or manipulating body positions to create more space. Try to create ‘combos’ with your teammate (slip passes, linking, passing into space to run onto) with the end goal of winning free hits/PCs. Defenders’ aim is to force the turnover with patience in the tackles and working with each other to shut down options (step in front)

Variations/Coaching Tips

• Creativity of eliminations
• Speed of execution
• Footwork to trick the defender
• Using the baseline and ‘weaving’ of your body (try and be deceptive)
