Equipment, Setup & Instructions
Equipment
- Cones for boundary marking
- Stopwatch or timer for assessing duration
Setup
- Area: 22x22 yard area marked with cones
- Group: 6 black players total, with 2 paired players starting joined by the hand in the centre of the area and the remaining 4 free players spaced evenly across the area
- Equipment: 4 cones marking the corners of the 22x22 yard area
Instructions
- Paired players keep hands linked and aim to tag free players with their free hands.
- When a free player is tagged, they join the pair to form a chain of three.
- Continue tagging; once a chain reaches four players, they split into two chains of two.
- The game concludes once all players are in chains.
Coaching Points
- Encourage clear and constant communication.
- Increase intensity progressively.
- Focus on players' movement, body language, and alertness.
- Warm-ups should be engaging and contextual to the session.
- Ensure players stay hydrated and take breaks.
- Emphasize the importance of warming up properly to prepare both mind and body.
Variations
Make it harder:
1. Reduce the space to 15x15 meters, increasing difficulty by limiting movement.
2. Allow chains of three to form only after a second tag.
Make it easier:
1. Expand the area to 25x25 meters to provide more space for free players.
2. Allow players to break chain momentarily to navigate obstacles or narrow spaces.
