🔧 How to set up the activity: Set up small grids (8x8 yards) with a mini “gate” of cones at one end 2 players per grid, 1 ball Attacker starts at one end, defender on the opposite side 🏃 Activity: Attacker tries to dribble through the gate to ‘escape’ the zone Defender must jockey, delay, and block the path Defender should look to tackle when there is a poor touch or when the attacker slows down If the defender wins the ball, they become the attacker and try to escape through the mini gate Swap roles after every turn ✅ Coaching points: Don't commit too early – stay patient Keep your feet moving and match the attacker’s speed Time your tackle when the ball is slightly away from the attacker
