Extra Sessions

Module: Master The Opponent: 7-12 Years Old Classroom: Use The 360TFT Game Model

These sessions can be used to replace any of the sessions in this course.

Session 1: Drop the Bib Rondo

Goal: React to winning and losing the ball.

Instructions:

• Defenders (blue) hold a bib/pinnie. If a defender wins the ball or forces it out of play, they drop the bib, and the player who lost the ball becomes the new defender.
• The game continues without stopping. If the ball goes out, the coach immediately plays in a new ball.
• If a defender wins the ball and drops their bib, the other defender can attempt to win it back, creating a transitional dynamic.
• Emphasise maintaining a high tempo, encouraging attackers to control the game’s pace with the ball.
