Hippo Drill 8v8
http://www.laxpower.com/laxnews/news.php?story=21371&page=1
- Divide kids into teams
- On field its 8v8 running a 2-3-2
- You have 20 seconds to clear and 10 seconds to get it in the box
- Start with a face-off and after each goal we do a face-off
- Once a team gains possession a player can run with the ball only for 3-5 seconds. Then the player must pass the ball to a teammate.
- Focus is on quick passes
- If the player with the ball fails to pass in 3-5 seconds, the coach blows the whistle and possession changes
or 6 on 6 half field
