  • Players spread out to all parts of the oval, choose a pocket to kick into every time (left or right, same at both ends)
  • Full-backs (A) and (B) kick-in to the chosen side of the ground
  • Players run the ball the length of the ground by hand and foot until a player is in position to kick a goal, and a shot is taken
    After a player disposes of the ball, they must tag the player they disposed to. This is particularly challenging after a kick, or when the player you're chasing is chasing someone else
  • Once the shot is taken, a kick-in from full-back happens immediately.
    Assistants / injured players retrieve balls
  • For seniors, you may wish to introduce several defenders in alternative strips to introduce added pressure.
