Let the players dribble around in the circle (Variant: let them do different warming-up exercises). There’s no active SmartGoal. While dribbling they have to be aware of the SmartGoal that will light up. When a SmartGoal lights up, the players have to compete who reaches the SmartGoal first. The first person who reaches the activated SmartGoal leaves the game and is ”save”. The game ends when there is only 1 person left in the game. | Skill: dribbling, awareness, reaction speed, acceleration | Coach on: stand on front feet, focus, executing possible exercises | Physical load: calfs, hamstrings, quadriceps |
