The Accelerator
How it works
Place the SmartGoals in in a row, side by side. The player has to dribble, with the ball, through the lighting SmartGoals. After one player ran through four activated SmartGoals, the next player has to take over. So the players start one after another.

Video One at a Time
This exercise is familiar with the Drop-Out exercise and can be done with or without ball. One difference: The players in this exercise go alternately (one after another) in a specific order. When a SmartGoal lights up there is only one player that has to run. Keep them focussed!
Video Drop-Out
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.
Two at a time
This exercise is familiar with the Drop-Out exercise. One difference: the exercise has to be done with two balls that have to be passed around. When a SmartGoal lights up, the nearest player has to get the ball and score. Keep them focussed!
