One at a Ball
How it works
This exercise has it's focus on passing. There's only one ball that have to be passed around. One pawn is placed close to the starting point and one is placed at a larger distance. SmartGoals are placed several meters behind the pawns. The player standing at the pawn has to check out to "drag the defender with him/her" by going through the SmartGoal before receiving the ball.

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.
Video The Accelerator
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.
