Minefield Warm Up

Setup

You will require: 1 ball each / 16 cones, Use a rectangular area large enough for your group, Start with one player on either side and coaches with a ball, all other players start with a ball each on one end of the field

How it works

The dribblers must move from one end of the area to the other, the passers on each side will kick there ball across to try and hit the balls belonging to the dribblers, if a ball is hit the dribbler then moves to the side as another passer, dribblers move from one end to the other on the coaches whistle, last player standing rules apply
