LESSON STRUCTURE:
Introduction:
You are now familiar with the basic skills of marking, kicking and handballing, it is
now time to develop these skills further. Today you will be learning an extremely
important tactical facet of Australian Football, that being marking the ball and
immediately having someone running pass to receive a handball who will then run
with and kick the ball. This is used to move the ball quickly and gain greater distance.
It is typically used to move to ball out of the defensive end. Today we will start off
with a quick game that will allow you to familiarise yourself with the skills
individually. We will then engage in some practice drills which will hopefully develop
this sequence of play. Upon completion of the drills you will then have a chance to
put these skills into practice in a game like situation. Most importantly though, lets
just remember its all about having fun, do not get frustrated if you cannot quite
complete the sequence with your first go, with time it will all come together.

Students rotate positions and will each have a turn on each position.
Players move to the cone they passed the ball to eg, X moves to
Triangle, Triangle moves to Square, Square moves to Circle and Circle
moves to X
Guiding questions: If the kick is not making the distance what can a player do to
improve that? How should you align your hands to anticipate the mark? Where should
the person receiving the ball from a hand pass position themselves to receive the ball
at optimum speed?
