Follow me on Twitter

Cat and Mouse! simply lay out a grid as shown below:

Two players line up, one to act as the mouse and doing the running and the other to act as the cat and to do the chasing!

Fun exercise but actually the fundamentals of the game are very realistic to football.

Working on:

- Reaction times

- Agility

- Balance

- Speed (Acceleration and Deceleration)

- Balance

- Explosiveness

- Co-ordination

Rules:

- Set a time limit (around 15-30 seconds) 

this is to ensure players can give a maxmium 100% effort.

- Players react on coaches call

- Wherever the leader goes, the chasing player MUST follow in his footsteps! so no cutting corners!

Thanks for reading..
