Mini Games
Invasion

Set up two zones adjacent to one another with a team each owning a zone. One team starts with the ball and a single player from the opposite team (an invader) enters their zone with the intention of winning the ball. The team in their zone need to hold the ball for as long as possible before the invaders turn over the ball. Every 10 seconds, a new invader can come into the defender’s zone to help turn over the ball. Once the turnover occurs, the invaders need to pass or carry the ball back to their zone and the game repeats in reverse. Teams score points based on how many invaders they had in their zone when the ball is turned over
Variations/Coaching Tips
• Ensure players are creating and using the space available
• Tacklers can work in pairs to channel and win the ball
