1 Bundaberg Junior Touch Coach s Booklet 2010/2011 For boys born 1999/2000
2 Dear Coaches Welcome to the 2010/2011 Bundaberg Junior Touch season. Firstly, we would like to thank you all for volunteering to take on this role. We hope you will find it rewarding and enjoyable. At Bundaberg Junior Touch we want to focus on two main goals this season: 1. Fun and enjoyment- Friday night touch is all about the kids enjoying their time at touch football. We believe that if they enjoy it they will come back and play again. 2. Skill and knowledge development-teaching the juniors as many skills and as much knowledge as possible. We believe that this is more likely to lead them to be better at the sport and therefore they ll want to keep playing. Changes for 2010/2011 While most folks have been taking a 6 month break from touch football the executive have been meeting regularly to discuss how we could make touch football better in Bundaberg this time around. We came up with some ideas and they are explained below: Skills sessions for 7-11 yr olds for the first part of the season For the first 6 weeks of the season (except boys who will have 4 weeks so they can fit in a full round of games before finals) all players in these age groups will spend the first half of their timeslot working on skill development through a range of activities. They will then play a game (not for points) in the second half of their timeslot to practise the skills developed earlier in the session. After that time they will play games for the whole timeslot until season s end. Why? Parents may ask We haven t done this in the past, what s this all about? Why aren t they playing a game? Reason We have noticed for some time now that the skill level of some of our older players who have been playing for some years in our competition has not been consistently high and we wanted to do something about it. As you know touch football doesn t have an expectation of mid-week training as some other sports do so many players turn up, run around and go home never really picking up some of the even most basic skills of the game. You would be surprised how many players don t know the most basic skill of the roll ball and how to do it properly. Bundaberg Junior Touch would really appreciate you taking the time to read the drills for each week and ensure they are practised with your team in the allotted time. Please work with the coach from the other team to co-ordinate which drills you will each do. We understand that some of you may be inexperienced coaches and may not be totally confident in your knowledge and understanding of each of the drills/skills. Please come and ask for help at the canteen or contact Terri Gilbert steve6terri4@optusnet.com.au or David Bonser bonzy@optusnet.com.au if you would like some help.
3 Graded Divisions for Boys and Girls In the past Bundaberg Junior Touch has had age groups and has strategically chosen teams of as even ability as possible to ensure close competition in these divisions. We now believe we can do things better. We know that once children reach the age of 12/13 there can be a significant difference in skill levels. By that age some players have had two years of rep training, some may have a physical development advantage. After mulling over this and debating it strongly for some time we have decided to split age groups into two divisions. Within the two divisions, players will compete against other players of similar skill and experience. What are the benefits? Within each division, players will be challenged by their peers with similar skill and ability. We expect that this will prevent situations where there is a clear and considerable difference in ability causing humiliation. We have theorised that a number of children in these age groups have left us in the past because there was no enjoyment in being dominated by the more skilled players. How were the teams selected? At the end of every season coaches rate their players to allow us to select teams appropriately. We have used that rating plus our knowledge of rep players to select what division each player will be in. It is likely that we may have some players in the wrong division. They could be a new player to town, they may have been rated inappropriately by last year s coach (or not at all) or we have simply misjudged their ability. Please let us know immediately if you feel we have selected someone in your team and you think they are in the wrong division. Want to learn more about coaching? Bundaberg Junior Touch coaching co-ordinator and State Under 16 coach, Terri Gilbert is keen to run a Community Level Coaching course this season. The commitment is only for a couple of hours. If you are interested please contact Terri and convey your intention to undertake the course. steve6terri4@optusnet.com.au Have a great season Bundaberg Junior touch
4 Bundaberg Junior Touch Skills Session 1 Oct 15, born Split the children in half (they don t have to stay in their teams) and each coach takes one drill. The drills run at the same time and after 3-4 minutes the children have a quick drink and got to the other drill. The coach stays at his/her drill and repeats for the second group. You will have to do 2 drills each to get the 4 drills complete Drill 1-sidestep (Coaching points: to effect a good sidestep players need to lean to one side with their weight transferred then use power to push off that leg to go the opposite direction) Set up all of your players in a line about 3-4 metres apart (except one) * * * * * One player each takes it in turn to zig zag in and out of the line using correct sidestep technique. You can build on that by letting the other players try to tag them as they run past Drill 2-Passing from the ground at half (Coaching points-correct footwork, pass on the way up, pass out in front of the runner) Take 2 players and set them up as a player rolling the ball and a half with the others lined up about 5 metres wide and 5 metres back from them. Get the front player to practise doing a proper roll ball and the half to pass from the ground to each player one at a time. The focus will be on the half getting their correct foot back and passing on the way up instead of standing up first and passing. * * * * * * * Once all players have had a go at the half swap so they have to pass the other way. *-players ^-markers
5 Drill 3- Diving into gaps when close to the line (Coaching points-get low, dive from 1-2m away. When attacking close to the scoreline many touchdowns are scored as attackers get low and dive at the line.) Have 2 players stand still about 2-3 m apart. Let each player take in turns to dive in between them to score a touchdown. The defenders have to have their feet planted but can use their arms to reach down and tag them D D Scoreline A Give each player a turn attacking. To build on this you can let the defenders get closer together or let them move more. The focus is on the attackers getting down low and controlling the ball as they dive on the ground. Drill 4-Making touches in front Making touches in front (Coaching points-working hard before the getting to the attacker to ensure the defender is in front of them when making touches) Split the group on half and have them pick a partner. Have them line up and face their partner who is 5m away. * * * * * * * * * * Have each pair run towards each other and when they meet they touch each other with both hands out in front. Do this 5 or 6 times. To build on this you can then, in the pair, you can have one attacker and one defender and the attacker is allowed to step and swerve or run around defender. The defender still has to try and stay in front of the attacker at all times. Game Play Coaches will encourage the players to make the touch in front of them avoiding having to dive when out of position and too far away from ball carrier When playing the game today keep reminding the players about the 4 skills that they learnt today
6 Bundaberg Junior Touch Skills Session 2 Oct 22, born Split the children in half (they don t have to stay in their teams) and each coach takes one drill. The drills run at the same time and after 3-4 minutes the children have a quick drink and got to the other drill. The coach stays at his/her drill and repeats for the second group. You will have to do 2 drills each to get the 4 drills complete Drill 1- Drill 1-running with the ball in two hands (Coaching points: when trying to avoid defenders hold the ball in two hands-passing option and keep defenders guessing) Set up a small field and have one attacker against one defender (trying to beat them one on one) Scoreline D A Give each player a turn attacking. To build on this you can add another attacker (2 on one) and the attacker has the option of passing. The focus is to make sure attackers sun with the ball in 2 hands. Drill 2-Dumping (Coaching points-holding the ball in one hand, face square, dump on the side of defender) Explain that as we move up the levels in touch football we have don t try to score every time we get the ball necessarily. To make ground quick rollballs or dumps are a strategy used. Players get partner up and face each other about 5 metres away. One is the attacker and one a defender * * * * * * * * * * They run toward each other and the attacker practises getting to the side of a defender and pretends to dump the ball. Swap roles. Repeat 3 times. Then the coach can give each pair a ball in turn and watch to see if they can get it correct.
7 Drill 3 Dump Split In touch football this move can create an overlap and scoring opportunity on the line. Players work in pairs. One pair at a time get a ball. First player runs up to a pretend defender, makes the touch on them and sweeps their leg over the ball (either right or left) so they are now in line with the ball on the ground. The half passes from the ground quickly to the player who rolled the ball who should have split into a gap. Nb the half may have to take small step forward to be able to pass backward Give each pair a couple of turns. (Coaching points-player who rolled the ball must face forwards, be very careful to make pass go sideways or backwards-there is little room for error) R H R (player who rolls the ball ends up here) R-Roll ball player H-Half Drill 4 Being balanced when making touches Touch football requires you to get back onside quickly after making a touch. Many junior players get out of position, dive etc and can t get back onside in time and let in touch downs We have already taught them about making touches in front of attackers, using a similar drill explain to them how they need to: Slow down when they are getting close to the attacker and Have knees bent and soft elbows ready for the impact and ready to move back onside quickly Game Play When playing the game today keep reminding the players about the 4 skills that they learnt today
8 Bundaberg Junior Touch Skills Session 3 Nov 5, born Split the children in half (they don t have to stay in their teams) and each coach takes one drill. The drills run at the same time and after 3-4 minutes the children have a quick drink and got to the other drill. The coach stays at his/her drill and repeats for the second group. You will have to do 2 drills each to get the 4 drills completed Drill 1-Run from half on the scoreline When attacking the opposition scoreline and effective move is to dump the ball quickly on the 5m line and the half scoop it up quickly and race into the score zone and pick up a runner. (Coaching points: to effect a good move here the rollball must be quick and clean, half must be on the move, keep their eye on the ball and pick it up cleanly then run into a gap before looking for support) Players pair up and each gets a go at doing a quick dump and running from half. Have each player practise both roles (first without defenders and then with defenders) Drill 2-Two on one situation Many time in a game the attacking team finds themselves with a two on one advantage but quite often can t convert it A (Coaching points-ball carrier must run straight or angle slightly infield to commit defender, support player must stay wide and run into the space) A D See how many times the attackers can convert the advantage into a touchdown.
9 Drill 3-Squeeze defence on the scoreline Because of the large amount of space to defend in touch football instead of using a man on man defence we use a compressed or squeeze defence to ensure no easy touchdowns are scored when a defender is beaten one on one D------D------D------D------D Scoreline A A B-(attacker with ball) A A Get 5 children to stand along a scoreline and then give one other player the ball and see if they can score. The defenders then have to practise staying close together or staying tight so there is no gap for the attacker to get through forcing them to pass to score which can force an error. Give all children a go at defending and if they get good at it add an extra attacker or two Defenders can imagine they are all connected by an elastic band and whenever there teammate moves they must follow. Keeping the line is imperative. Drill 4-spiral pass Spiral passes are used when passes need to cover a good distance. Players can practise these by making a circle and passing across the circle where there is some distance involved. 1 Ball is held in the V grip by the driving hand. (The Driving Hand is the hand which propels the ball. When passing
10 Right to Left it is the Right hand. When passing Left to Right it is the Left hand.) Ideally with fingers and thumb pressed against the surface but the palm not in contact. 2 The other hand is used to steady and direct the ball towards the target. During the passing action, make sure the end of the ball is pointing towards the target. 3 In one motion, draw the ball to the side opposite the target by raising the elbow and roll the wrist downwards to create tension. 4 Transfer the ball across the body, straightening the wrist and using fingers to exert spin on the ball. 5 Follow through with passing motion and finish with fingers pointing towards target. Game Play When playing the game today keep reminding the players about the 4 skills that they learnt today
11 Bundaberg Junior Touch Skills Session 4 Nov 5, born Split the children in half (they don t have to stay in their teams) and each coach takes one drill. The drills run at the same time and after 3-4 minutes the children have a quick drink and got to the other drill. The coach stays at his/her drill and repeats for the second group. You will have to do 2 drills each to get the 4 drills complete Drill 1- Wrap (Coaching points: angle of the runner s critical, must have enough space to do move ) 1 Receiver takes ball on the run 2 Attracts attention of defender in front of him. 3 Runs an angled course back in front of the passer. 4 Wrapper delays run and then wraps around the ball carrier into the space provided. 5 Wrapper receives pass and straightens up. Have each player practise both roles (first without defenders and then with defenders)
12 Drill 2-Dummy (Coaching points-hold the ball in two hands out in front, move the ball as far as you can without letting go across your body, look at the direction of the dummy to give an indication you are going to pass) To build on this you can add a sidestep with the dummy for further effect Drill 3-Switch Using 2 players get the ball runner to run on a 45 degree angle to scoreline, support player runs exact opposite angle and ball carrier turns their body to pass them the ball. 1 The Ball Carrier attracts his Defender. 2 Gets on the outside of him and runs across field at pace. 3 Receiver stands deep and wide and initially also runs out to attract and hold his Defender in place. 4 The Ball Carrier with his Defender in pursuit, heads out towards Receiver who steps and changes direction back inside Ball Carrier. 5 Ball Carrier turns (always keeping Receiver in view) and passes back inside to Receiver who straightens and takes the gap left by the Defender who is chasing the Ball Carrier.
13 (Coaching points-ball carrier must run hard to commit defender and support player must delay switch as late as possible.) Drill 4-three person rucking In touch football most touchdowns are scored close to the scoreline so we need ways to get down there. Below is one rucking pattern that is low risk and can get your team to the other end quickly when done well. This requires groups of 3 c b a 1 In three man situation player (a) rolls the ball, player (b) is acting half and player (c) is the receiver. 2 Player (a) rolls to (b) who passes to (c) who takes the ball on the run close to the advantage line. (The Advantage line is an imaginary line which would be created should a line be drawn across the field using the ball, in the roll ball situation, as it s marker.) 3 (b) wraps around (c) calling for the ball. He probably will not receive the ball but is at least creating confusion for defenders and will now be in position to take the next ruck. 4 (c) angles back in front of the ruck and tries to get between two defenders. (c) makes touch at the defensive line and rolls the ball back to (a) who has moved forward and is now acting half. 5 Procedure is now repeated with (c) rolling ball, (a) acting half and (b) receiving. 6 (a) now wraps (b) who angles back in front of the ruck and (c) moves to acting half.
14 Important Points To be effective must be carried out with continuous motion and not stop and start. Player who rolls ball goes to acting half. Acting half wraps receiver, calls for ball and maintains position. Receivers keep coming from the same side. Receivers angle back in front of the ruck and get between defenders. Receivers make touches on defenders to stay in control. Receivers take ball on run never standing still. Always call loudly and urgently for the ball. Game Play When playing the game today keep reminding the players about the 4 skills that they learnt today
