Stuck in the mud with a ball: the set-up from above

How it works

Taggers try to touch dribblers. Tagged players stand with legs apart and are freed when a teammate passes a ball through their legs.

Make it easier

Fewer taggers

Make it harder

More taggers; the freeing pass must come from at least 5 m

Less planning. More coaching.
