Aim: To use a dodge in order to outwit a defender.

Organisation: 3 players – 1 worker, 1 shadowing defender and 1 feeder. Cones can be used to signal a point to drive towards. Worker steps to either left or right and then in order to deceive the defender sprints in the opposite direction.

Coaching Points:

Body weight over the base, knees and ankles flexed
Head up, eyes on the ball and feeder
Step out with left or right foot, whilst dropping the corresponding shoulder
Use this foot to transfer your weight to enable a change of direction
Turn your hips and drive towards the cone
Feeder must throw an appropriate pass which is into the space for the worker to attack

Progressions:

Work both sides of the body
Increase pressure from defender
Apply technique to a 3v3 game or other small game situations with conditions “every ball must be passed to someone who has used a dodge”
