Ground Ball Tag
 

Purpose:

Improve the abilitiy to pick up a ground ball under pressure

 

Equipment:

4 Cones
 

Directions:

 

1. Set up a 30-by-30-yard grid with four cones.

 

2. One player without a stick is the defender who is “it.”

 

3. The remaining eight players have sticks and are the offense; two of the eight players have a ball.

 

4. On the whistle, the offensive players have to roll ground balls to each other while cutting inside the grid. The defender tries to tag an offensive player who has a ball before the offensive player can roll it to a teammate, or as the teammate picks up the ground ball.

 

5. Once someone is tagged while holding the ball, she A becomes the defender, and the other player takes her D place with the offense.

 

6. Drill continues for 2 to 3 minutes.
