The Game

Looking for correct decisions and distributions. The Goalkeeper must pass to a red player, 3 points for passing to one in the goal zone, 1 point for a pass elsewhere. You can give points for varying distribution. The red players must pass the ball 3 times and then pass it back to the Keeper, who can pick it up. The Keeper must stay in 10 yds x 5 yds zone. The Keeper must choose the appropriate distribution either Drop kick, half Volley, goal kick, underarm, javelin or overarm

The blues try to win the ball, they get 3 points for intercepting a pass from the Keeper and 1 point from a red. Let each team play for 5 mintes then change teams and Keeper.

If the throw takes too long to get there, then its the wrong technique. Don't throw the ball to a player who has his back turned to you. You should look long first if there is nothing on play short.
